Assemble Solid and Attractive Stairs.

At long last, a master carpenter shows you how to assemble stairs that are solid and attractive. Whether you need to build three steps up to a deck or a full flight to your second floor, this one-on-one tutorial with Scott Schuttner takes the guesswork out of going up and down.

You're right there as Schuttner shows how to build two common staircases: a straight-run stair with plywood treads and risers (to be covered with carpeting) and an L-shaped stair with housed oak treads and risers.

In Basic Stairbuilding, you'll discover how a pro troubleshoots and corrects problems, as well as how to:

Calculate and mark the rise and run for any length stair
Position carriages to accommodate drywall and skirtboards
Fasten sturdy treads and risers so they never squeak
Anchor shopmade newel posts, balusters and handrail
