• If you are not a "sea wolf" and complex nodes you have problems, you can go in a simple way.In the place of the rope, where you need to do one simple step to tie the knot, thread the rope through the hole in the step and take another of the same bundle.All.The stage is fixed.It is only necessary to follow the symmetry of the nodes on both pieces of rope, to avoid distortions.

To extend the operating period of the stairs and avoid cracking steps at their edges can be put on special protective ring of the required diameter of the metal, harvested in advance.

If you need a wide staircase, the steps taken for the longer boards.In this case, the steps are drilled one more hole in the middle, and a threaded hole in such a third piece of rope.
