Good tutorial, Kurt! This can make a staircase that's both good-looking and very functional, which is an important part of design!

In fact, I'll probably incorporate this into my next build. =)

Thanks Austin, I really appreciate the feedback!

I get tired of climbing ladders so i do a spiral staircase to the mob xp spawner. takes forever to move up and down to the x level 200. i am going to try doing this to see how it works.
