The picture above shows the basic structures that would hold the

seven steps or padis in this case, or if you prefer you could have five,

nine and even eleven steps (Length 6’ – 8’ and width I’ for padi).

All these wooden structures shown here and the seven planks that

would form the steps not shown here cost about $70/- (Seventy

Dollars For Seven Steps; $85/- for Nine Steps). For the materials in

local hardwood stores, such as, 4 premium furring Str

2KD W Select Stud, 3 Top Choice EWP PRE. And 2 Top Choice

KD Whit. If you are not a carpenter use one and make your product

In a day but he may charge between $100 to $200 according to size.

This is only a guess, local costs may go 20% higher or lower based

on where you live!
