In this video I show how I set up and fit the first section of a winder stair set.

Great video, thx for sharing, we are making a solid oak staircase with the winder at the bottom and straight at the top, it's nice to have a video as a reminder on a job I've done many years ago. I know how to make them, but I lose a little confidence after not doing one for many years, so this has refreshed what I already know, nice to see a quality craftsmen at work.

Del, as a Plumber its great watching a Craftsman like yourself. It’s always amazes me how some can see the finished job in their head & allow for all the things involved. I must be honest & cringed a wee bit when you took much ‘meat’ off the Stringer at the top. I thought ‘he’s not left much to hook on with’!! But as always, your Brain was ahead of the game👍 I’m really looking forward to the next part. Makes me think of guys back in the day, with a handful of tools, what they could do. Thanks mate. PS. Some of the Passy Slinging Wood Butchers I work with would be lost with a job like that!!

Hi Daniel🖐PVA glue is INSANELY strong when used on tight joints, and is much more user friendly when used on stairs👍I'm not saying its superior to PU glue, as PU glue is VERY strong and good at bonding non tight joints💪it's just a bit messy for use on stairs😎Thanks for watching and your comment 🤩Cheers Del

ALWAYS start fitting from the top Peter👍as the top tread/nosing is an absolute fixed point with no scope for adjustment, unlike the bottom tread/riser which you wouldn't notice being 10mm higher or 10mm lower👊Thanks for watching 😎 Cheers Del

Del, doesn't it bother you at all, being a right-hander, using a circular saw with the blade on the right and the motor on the left?
@thetallcarpenter11 ай бұрын
Hi there🖐Absolutely not😲I find blade right saws far easier to use than blade left ones🤔It's mainly due to the better sighting of the blade as you lean over the saw, and as you lean over the saw, you bring it closer in towards your body where you can utilise your core strength better, which gives better power and control👊 I find myself leaning away from my blade left saw to sight the blade, plus it shoots the dust straight into my pockets😆Thanks for your comment😎
@julietphillips199111 ай бұрын
@@thetallcarpenter Two things: you're a pro, I'm just a diyer and you're tall, I'm not. My issue is sighting the blade because for me it's over there and I find myself craning and leaning over too much. It took me a while to realize that some saws have the blade on the right and others on the left.
