Stairs

Yesterday afternoon, I started cutting the stringers for the stairs. At first, I used the chop saw set at the appropriate angle to start the cut on the risers, but I couldn't use it for the tread cut as the angle was too sharp. After the first stringer, I decided I was handy enough to make all the cuts with the circular saw, finishing out the corners with the jig saw.

I finished the stringers this morning, and by lunch, we had two of the three stringers up and treads in place for temporary use until we are ready to drywall and put the permanent stairs in place.
