Why don’t we double miter our stairs?! Stay tuned for tomorrows vlog! #carpentry #build

What happens here

Following the installation of the lowest tread, the worker proceeds to install another light-colored composite decking board for the next step up. Similar to the previous step, the board is carefully positioned to create the second tread of the stairs, and then secured using a cordless drill/driver. This demonstrates the iterative process of building the stair treads.

Goal: Add the main walking surface for the second step.

Tools and materials

  • Cordless Drill/Driver Makita — Securing the composite decking boards
  • Composite Decking Fasteners — Attaching the tread board to the frame
  • Light-colored Composite Decking Board — Forming the tread surface of the second stair
