    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?

    very nice video to that illustrates the process. my basement steps have 8 inch risers and 10 inch treads with the exception of the top step before the landing, 6 inches. If I uniformly draw the dimensions as shown for the similar dimensioned step but cut out a lower riser height for the last step will this work. In your example allowances were made for slight differences. Thanks

    How to manage when the stair tread has a shaped nose with eoundover and cove trim?

    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.

    Can you make a video of scribing one when the steps have a bull nose?

    Is there a way to recut the outer boards and recreate the side template and drop it it and screw that to the struts?

    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.

    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.

    Which wood type would you use for this?

    • @stairbuilding
      @stairbuilding  Місяць тому

      I can't think of any you can't use. I like oak, poplar and pine.

    Is it possible for me to just add a precut stringer to the center of an existing staircase that only has the two stringers?

    • @stairbuilding

      Yes and here's a link to our stair repairs that has a video that should help. www.homebuildingandrepairs.com/repairs/stair/index.html

    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.

    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...

      You can do 10 or 12 inches or 15 feet if the board allows, you’re just offsetting each upward, the difference between the steps will stay the same.
