What happens here

Using a DeWalt chainsaw, cut the end of a long timber log to the desired length. Then, use a Flex circular saw to cut a notch into another timber log. This notching technique allows timbers to interlock, creating stronger and more stable corners for the staircase. Always ensure the cuts are straight and precise for a good fit.

Goal: Prepare timbers by cutting them to length and creating notches for interlocking joints.
