This video, by way of available photos, shows the complete rebuild and renovation of an 18th century coach house, in a picturesque spot on the banks of a Cornish estuary.
One feature of this build people have shown interest in seeing more about, is the bespoke plywood spiral staircase. You can see that coming together at 5:54 in the video. 10 layers of beautiful birch ply make up each step. 9 pieces forming a sculpted riser, with the 10th tread piece featuring a fluted walnut inlay, and lipped with sycamore for protection.
This build was quite the rollercoaster and spanned the course of 2 years and was to prove the last job of it's type (site/construction) for me and my mentor. The build could probably have been completed in 8 months but it proved quite the stop start endeavour due to being on the grounds of a busy guest house, along with serious illness putting the job on hold for a number of months.
Apologies for the quality of the photos and footage used. When we started this project, I didn't have a Youtube channel and the pictures taken were purely for our own memories.
Hopefully that doesn't detract too much from what, I hope, is an otherwise interesting video.
Cheers
