Since 1979, Andy Engel has been a carpenter, a stair builder, a remodeling contractor, and a builder. He became an editor in 1996, working at Fine Homebuilding, Fine Woodworking, and Professional Deck Builder magazines. As a freelancer, he wrote for publications including This Old House and Popular Mechanics, and he’s the author of “Building Stairs” and “Carpentry Complete” by the Taunton Press. Deciding that life is too short to spend in front of a computer screen, Andy returned to the trades as a lead carpenter for HVP in 2019.
