What happens here

Begin by accurately marking the rise and run for each step on a wooden board. The video demonstrates using a DeWalt circular saw to make the straight cuts for the stair profile. After the straight cuts are made, switch to a DeWalt jigsaw to carefully cut out the remaining material from the inner corners, creating the precise shape of the treads and risers for the stair stringer. Ensure all cuts are clean and follow your markings closely.

Goal: Precisely cut the step profiles into the wooden boards.
