What happens here
After making the straight cuts with the circular saw, use a jigsaw, like the Makita BJV180, to complete the internal corners and any sections where the circular saw could not reach or would overcut. Carefully guide the jigsaw along the remaining marked lines, connecting the cuts made by the circular saw. This ensures clean, precise corners for the treads and risers, creating the finished zigzag profile of the stair stringer.
Goal: Complete the internal and corner cuts for the stair stringer.
