Physical fitness.

Ascending the stairs is of greater physical benefit than descending. A stair like this would mix fitness with fun:

I know Clyde, and I saw that exact slide/stairs in his shop when it was partially constructed. I believe it was his first, but he has constructed quite a few similar stair/slide systems since then. Prior to construction, he made a scale model, as well as a 6 or 8 ft. mockup to determine the best angle on the slide.

i’ve recently seen a picture of that or similar!
no photos when i land at the bottom! maybe ambulance at the ready.

i sent this link to my grdaughter recently:

“Flight of Stairs | How Many Flight of Stairs per Floor | Design Criteria”
https://thecivilengineerings.com/flight-of-stairs/
i’ll send all these pics to her tonight.

i’m not allowed to text during school hours. they’re all such a drag.

Shaker stairs have been a long time fav. So beautiful.

i’m not impressed with the drop from the slide to the floor. ouch.

The slide angle is carefully engineered to make the slide not too fast or too slow.
