The Ch-ladder

So here's some pics of the chair/ladder I made using spec's from one of my Popular Mechanics magazines. It can be flipped from a chair into a step ladder so Darc and I call it the chladder. It's made from 1" thick red oak. I stained it, then put a clear coat on it which gives it a bit of a shine but also helps protect it from wear and tear. All the pieces are screwed together and then covered with plugs and sanded flush so none of the screws can be seen which I like. It's feels pretty solid. I stood on the top step as a test and it was able to hold my weight. I was nervous at first because I didn't want it to break after all the time I put in making it, but I stepped on one step at a time, listening for creeks and it held my weight which was a relief.
