Here's another way to layout stair skirt board when steps have different measurements. Some steps might be higher or lower or longer or shorter and this can be confusing for professional construction carpenters as well as do it yourself weekend builders.
Excellent 👌I take these calculations would work as well in the case of stairs with consistent steps - more common nowadays due to CNC. A renovation is coming up in 12 - 18 months where I will find myself dealing / building staircases - I trully hope your instructional videos will come handy if for some reason I find myself messing up the works!
What would be your suggestion for accommodating out of plumb risers as well? scribe after you drop down to your height, or can you mark for both at same time?
thanks for this info
You're welcome
Beautiful nice I love following this channel learn a lot throughout the years
Glad to hear it
Is there a way to recut the outer boards and recreate the side template and drop it it and screw that to the struts?
another great video. thank you. question: are their classical ratios for face skirts and wall skirt sizes. I assume that different architectural styles call for different relationships (to the rise and run) but curious if you know where we can learn more about that. I'm particularly interested in the proper ratios for a craftsman/bungalow. thanks!
The most common is 1 x 12. I don't have any formulas, but if anyone else does feel free to share them.
How much stair skirt should show? Let's say inches from the stair nose to top of skirt?
Thanks
It can be even with top of step or taller. Most of the time it's about 3 inches above nosing or front of step.
If you go 8" when your biggest measurement is 7"3/4. Won't you have at least a 1/4" gap on top of all the threads?
Agreed...
Thanks!
Welcome!
Is it possible for me to just add a precut stringer to the center of an existing staircase that only has the two stringers?
Yes and here's a link to our stair repairs that has a video that should help. www.homebuildingandrepairs.com/repairs/stair/index.html
Any advice if I have a rounded nose on all my treads?
Thank you!
I included it in one of the video I just made. It should be on the youtube playlist.
Outstanding tutorial. Thank you for taking the time make the video/graphics, and explain everything so clearly. My project that I thought was out of my skill set….just came back into focus for me.
That is pretty trick
Yes and glad you liked it.
