Really like the look of box stairs, with decking covering everything, just not to sure on how they are made, has anyone made some, I have a vague idea of a box on a box sort of getting smaller but dont know where to start, any ideas?

Will try and post a photo of what I mean

Something like these?

They are a major **** to construct. Nice to sit on, though. Try to keep them compliant with BCA rules for stairs, as this will ensure they get used as intended...
