Ohhhhhh, yes, again, the pieces were NOT glued in place until after the round over, and finish was applied.

I was kidding, but that would be a cool twist on the design. I guess a guy with the skills to build that pantry could whip up a rolling ladder in a trice...
Heh heh heh.
Glasses that your inlaws gave you, eh?

Missed the short set of steps on the far end, did you?
Yeah! Actually I might have a rolling ladder for the study and it's 11' tall walls.
I did, and I still can't believe 'em. Sacre bleu, eet joost eezn't doone!

Oh, I saw them when they were pointed out to me, Leon. But most women wouldn't allow something as ugly and pedestrian as steps in their precious kitchen! Sacre bleu, eet joost eezn't doone!

While I made a 2-step stepstool to reach up to otherwise inaccessible areas, it lives in the mudroom on the "park side" of our house. In the kitchen on the street side we have a kickstep roll-about stepstool that we special-ordered through Goodman's Hardware before it sadly closed (pancreatic cancer of owner).
To me, well worth the investment - lightweight, sturdy and you can kick it around when you have your hands full, as when putting away groceries.

Maybe you can make another identical set and put them on the other side of the cabinet so they look like part of the cabinet. That way, both of you can access the drawers at the same time. Otherwise, get rid of them and use a kitchen chair to get up there like the rest of us do. :-)
You're one of the few men in the country whose wife will let a set of steps or ladder get anywhere near their PROTECTED AREA, the kitchen. You should feel grateful.
I keep a 2-step folder in the utility room next to the kitchen since I use it very, very seldom.

LOL. That step stool is kinda heavy, solid white oak. I drag out the kitchen chair when my wife is not looking. She likes to put her seasonal fluff on the step stool steps.

Same here. But if my wife wants something from a tall shelf, she gets me to reach it for her. She tells her girlfriends that she married me because I am tall.
I just wanted to tell you I think your piece is absolutely stunning. If you are at all interested in being an author, you should probably send your photos to a magazine or two.

Well Thank you Bill!
In this house, the kitchen is MINE.
Your feet must be smaller than hers ;-)

I agree ... and I actually got to 'tush' it! Photos do not do it justice.

I think you'd enjoy my chili better than most of her food. No complaints, just a remark.
Your chili is not ,,, green is it? ;~)
The first time my wife made chili for me I thought it was hot dog relish. She is from Tonawanda, NY.
