Stair Building Guide

 

This instruction manual is the first comprehensive visual book on stair building. The 14 chapters contain over 475 black and white photographs with detailed instructions, illustrations and reference tables.

     Each indexed chapter of this Guide visually deals with one segment of the installation process.  Dozens of photographs cover each section in depth, allowing you to see actual job site conditions at each stage of the installation process.
     The order of the chapters will allow the beginning carpenter to see the installation process from start to finish, with references to similar concepts listed where necessary for a more complete understanding. And for the more experienced stair installer looking for specific information, the one-subject chapters, index, and reference materials will provide information for a lifetime of stair building.
