STAIR TREAD TRICK: See Simple Jig on Video

Are you building or renovating wooden stairs? Or perhaps you need to precisely fit other pieces of wood tightly between two fixed surfaces? You’ll learn something useful with the video below.

This is the first video I ever posted online, it’s been public since November 28, 2008. It’s also as useful as ever. (Please excuse the fuzziness. Cameras weren’t that good back then. Bonus: At least I had more hair than now!) This video teaches a simple, cost-free way to mark new stair treads and risers to length so they fit perfectly between stair stringers. It’s a common challenge in trim carpentry and woodworking, and the solution is quite simple.

Was this little trick worth learning about? I hope so. Please consider helping me cover the cost of creating and publishing content like this. Click the “buy me a coffee” button below for a safe, simple and fast way to make a contribution. Thank you very much.
