Custom Riser Fabrication and Installation

hopefully it'll help you guys for the risers I use a remainder of my MDF pieces and I have custom cut all the individual risers using that custom measuring tool that I've created for the stair treads and I created each individual piece custom tailored to each step on the back of it I actually wrote the step number one through sixteen I placed a piece of tape wrapping around the bottom part of the stair tread itself making the easy for me to remove those pieces after all of them had the perfect dry fit once everything is done I brought it to the garage and I've created this pattern I don't know what to call it I don't know if it's a half way between herringbone and Chevron but it really does look cool it's not an original idea but this is how I did it I used my Craig table saw sled set the miter to 30 degrees and have created these quarter-inch deep grooves I then flip the piece over and created the same one on the other side and then one straight 90 degree align down the middle once all my cuts were made and everything was ready for painting right before I laid down the paint and primer what I did is I took a piece of sandpaper 150 grit folded it in half and went through each channel little groove one or two stroke at a time mostly because when it comes to painting I believe a lot of the little fibrous materials in the wood will start rising and it won't be as crisp and sharp so take a little time feel a little bit of sanding inside of it it's not a lot of work just you can get it knocked out in just a few minutes when it comes to actually painting this time I laid down one or two coats of primer and then I finished it off with a hyper white two coats I believe is all it took and it turned out so much faster and such a better finish than when I did the trim work on my steps once the paint was dry the installation of the staircase risers couldn't have gone smoother than it did and I think that's because we took the time to custom number all the risers on the back tailored to the exact destination on the stairs themselves so when the time has come all that to do is put a couple of beads of silicone on the back of each riser set it in place and secure it using three Brad nails once the Brad nails were done throughout the risers all that to do is go back a light coat of putty into all the holes touch it up with the exact paint that was left from the risers paint and then right after that I just finished doing all the baseboards around the staircase and I'm…
