Stairs done

Finally got the stairs done. I made these using the White Oak flooring that we had installed upstairs. I glued them together with the nose piece. So the treads are 3/4" thick on top of sub-flooring and the risers are White Oak 1/4" plywood on the sub-floor risers. Everything was finished with Glitsa before installing. The treads and riser were glued down with RTV so they could be removed at another time to be refinished. I also made up the end trim out of the same flooring boards, routed with the bit I bought for all the baseboard and trim we added in the storage room. Trim boards were cut, miters glued together, and then finished before installing. Trim was then installed using 1" long #2 sheet metal screws, counter sunk and then color matched filler over.
