    My little shop stool has gotten pretty rickety and unstable. It's definitely not safe for me to stand on to get things off my lumber rack anymore. I needed something that would be more stable and be a touch taller. I thought it would be nice to have a shop stool that could also double as a step ladder. With that in mind, I drew up a Fisher's Shop take on a common design for a step stool. This piece features a stable double A-frame designed stool with a nested set of steps that can flip out on an axle. This turned out to be a wonderful little addition to the shop! And with just half-lap and dado joinery, it was a cinch to put together. Check out the video and then pick up the plans to make yourself one of these handy little step-stools.

      This is exactly how I felt when my dad introduced me to Drew's videos. He's always telling me some anecdote from a video he's watched that I don't particularly care about (he's disabled so he spends most of his days watching TH-cam.) I just happened to be walking through one day and caught one of those silly jokes, and 18 months later, I don't miss a video!
