Hi Justin, your videos rock - for both content and teaching quality. One comment on this lesson 8: I was a little confused when you refer to the stair treads as "risers" which are the vertical parts between the treads. Treads are the horizontal surfaces we step on. Is that what you meant? Thanks for all the great lessons and tips on using Sketchup!

SAVE OFTEN! I got 3/4 of the way through when Sketchup crashed. Lost all my work 😪 I've found that going through the tutorials twice really helps, so not a real big loss.

Hey Justin I watched a video of yours from awhile back about figuring out stairs and this one is way easier! Thanks for the simplification.

How are you zooming and moving around while also dragging and item? For example, you move the railing base from the bottom stair to the top tread while maneuvering your view. It seems like you are always using two hands at the same time. I'm using the mouse with my right hand and then clicking shortcuts on my keyboard with the left hand. What am I missing?

Justin. You're my goto channel for Sketchup. Will you be doing a new series using Sketchup for iPad and iMac? There is no right click (that I know of) on an Apple mouse.

Just for clarity, in construction terminology the elements your are calling 'risers' are in fact called treads(that which one would tread upon). A riser a vertical piece that would be added to close in at the back between each tread to add strength to the assambly. Otherwise, Great job.

Yeah that bugged me. But I'm easily bugged.

whats the first math with 12? what is the 12 standing for? like, you measure the height wich is 11,6 and the stair space is 7 3/4..

Just a note, that Sketchup doesn't work properly on my (older)Mac in Safari. I switched to FireFox and it works fine.

For figuring out the spacing we could also draw a line depicting the total height and divide the line into equal riser heights

That would work too - I did that with the spiral staircase video

Good tutorial but two mistakes: 16.5' is not 16 feet 5 inches. And the cable shouldn't align with the top rail base, it should align with the second top one.
