What this video covers
Edgar replaces a failing exterior staircase used to access his boat while it sits in a dry dock.▶ 0:00 The previous structure, built from cedrinho wood measuring approximately 20 by 2.5 centimeters, rotted and loosened, creating a safety hazard.▶ 1:20 To improve structural integrity, he constructs a new staircase using 5 by 15 centimeter cambará beams, which cost 295 reais.▶ 1:38 He cuts notches into the beams with a saw and chisel to ensure a secure fit and reinforces the joints with carriage bolts.▶ 2:03 The new staircase spans approximately 3.5 meters in height.▶ 5:31 Although the finished structure lacks a handrail, Edgar utilizes existing scaffolding as a temporary support while he works to complete the installation.▶ 4:40 He notes that the staircase prioritizes utility and strength over the aesthetics required for permanent boat fixtures.▶ 5:31 The project is part of ongoing maintenance efforts to prepare the vessel for relaunching.▶ 6:36
