How To Rebuild Garage Stairs and Landing

Here is a picture of the old stairs and landing that crosses over the stairs that go to the basement from the garage. The "safety railing" or shoe rack was terribly made, it was very wobbly and gross to look at.

How to Build a Custom TV Stand

Here is the completed TV stand. It has been in use for 5 years and is in perfect condition even after moving twice. The Wii was originally deigned for a DVD player and the space below was originally made for a VCR (yes I had one 5 years ago). The top shelves were designed for DVD game cases but have since migrated into CD books.
