If ya got questions, just ask. I build more than my share of stairs, and I'm sure there are plenty of others here that can help as well. --dave
RE: Subject
Just curious.
A question for the stair builders.
How often do you find yourself building a set of stairs that is other than a 3-4-5 right triangle?
(ie: 6" rise, 8" tread)

What's up Dave? Any stair conversing?
Howdy there mister Mike, What say you about the stair business locallly? Busy?

Mike you there?
I was unable to find your group, sorry! --dave
hmmm, staircases,hardwood.... i'll look into it Where you from?
Staircases, Hardwood it seems to work. Try again. You and i can get this group up and going. Other stair people will join in.
I'd say my average is normally a 71/8" to 71/2" rise and 10" to 11" run. (The average angle is about 35-37 degrees.) In fact, I can't off hand remember building any that fell into a perfect 3-4-5 rt triangle. --dave
Dave, It's a google group, not under rec.woodworking. Just (Staircases, Hardwood)
Do you have a link? I have earthlink news and just entered the group name into the newsgroup search with no luck. --dave
Mike, Nice website. How about some information on different suppliers, etc. Are you using Chinese parts? Seems we're almost exclusively using them.
Yup, _THE_ stair builder hangs out here on occassion:
If you need to know anything about stairs and much more, he's your man.

I found ya and will check it out tomorrow. Time to shut this thing down for the night, and enjoy some cold ones. Later --dave
