Conductors Stool Plan

[cat_couple]

Greetings all,

I am seeking a set of plans for a Railroad conductor's stool. I saw this project as a young man and now that my fiance is shorter than I and we have tall cabinets, I am looking to find this and build one for in our new kitchen.

Regards

Are you looking for a plane to build a steptool similar to one used when boarding a train?

I know you want to build your own, but are these what you are looking for?

I hit paydirt! My other hobby I'm involved in is model railroading. In the March 1999 issue of Model Railroader, on p. 34 is a plan for a porter stepstool you can build. Now there's two way we can do this: You can call Kalmbach Publications for them to send you a copy for $5 or, if you want, I can look it up for you and send you the plan. I happen to have that issue at home. When I get home tonight, I'll look it up to make sure. But I think it is what you're looking for.

Hey Ryan;
I too am a model train enthusiast, Shays and logging is my thing!:D The plans I am searching for, are similiar to those above, but the sides were closed. I do not have the issue of MR you are referring to, and I think i have seen that print. The stool is one that you can stand anywhere on it and it won't tip. When they are done right, they are simple yet elegant and I am going to do mine from hickory.

Regards and thanks to all who are offering help
