- In this video I show how to build and use a jig that lets you cut out stair treads and risers with perfection. If you would like to order an improved and re-designed version of this jig then visit the link below or send me an email.
The jig I sell now is different than this one but is a much improved version with a better design and made of virtually indestructible high density plastic.. As always, thanks for your support.

Great video! I was just trying to figure out how to use the jig, but to be shown how to make my own. Priceless!
They say English accents make ppl sound smarter. Well the Southern accent this gentleman speaks with makes em sound friendly/hospitable. Who knows...maybe he drowns kittens for a hobbie...but I doubt it. Cheers from Canada! Thanks for posting. Great video.
Man does it make me happy when Im looking up how to do something and you always have a video. Love it brother
Love this guys - direct and to the point -- and says whats on his mind.
Very good tips - thanks again, and again
Larry Manus Thanks, Larry. I appreciate the kind words!
Tanks a lot now I know how to make a precise cut. Heading out to Home Depot to give a shot.
Thanks Mr.Nailgun. What a ridiculously simple solution to a problem that can be so complicated. Good thing you came up with it because I certainly couldn't have worked it out! Cheers from Downunder.
David Handley Thanks for watching, David. I appreciate the kind words.
well this video just saved me a pile of money thanks a bunch
Genius idea brother!!! You make it look easy.
Thanks!
That's the best model for a jig I've seen so far - although I would probably use a metal rule.
Outstanding! Glad it helped out. Thanks for watching!
Repair Extraordinaire Well fitted & done, Great job !
After watching I made my own jig. Had some wing nuts in my stash and ply wood scraps, so it cost virtually nothing. I am remodelling our house in Hickman, Tn. Just mounted the newell posts yesterday for railing of the loft/bonus room. I have mounted the risers but not the treads. Want to save some wear and tear on the new finish while work on the railing etc. You videos have given me loads of help. I was an auto mech. by trade so used to working with tools, but this construction stuff is a whole different ball game. Kind of stretches my tiny little brain. Thanks for the help and entertainment.
Thank you, man! Very detailed video and pretty easy to follow steps. You've made my entire stair work explained in a few minutes. Thanks.
you are not only very clever and professional but also very kind heart to share it with all of us so thank you very very much for wonderful people like your selfe
seroor007 Wow, I'm blushing. :-) Thanks for watching.
This is awesome ... thanks a ton BNG. Works like a charm and much faster than using a tape measure.
Outstanding! Thanks for the great feedback. I'm glad you have gotten some use out of this little device. I found it very helpful when I did my stairs.
tried to make your jig myself. I don't own a table router. I bought a handheld one for like $89 from home depot. I couldn't get it to route straight I even tried to make a jig but id have it tilted up or down some. I see jigs online for $80. cheapest most are closer to $189.00 so I just ordered yours for $75. Good deal because that includes shipping. I've wanted one of these for years will be happy to own one. I am a floor guy but I do mostly tile so I have only done maybe 3 sets of hardwood stairs in 15 years and I just kept re cutting and re adjusting my saw angle for stairs this jig will pay for its self in 1 job in time saved. Thank you for making my work easier.
Excellent. Thanks for taking the time to show this.
Chad Beaudin Thanks! I appreciate the encouragement. Glad you liked it.
Thank you for the stair video. Just finished oak stair tread/riser project using a home made jig like the one you described. Everything fit well and the project turned out great. Could not have done it without the jig.
Regards, Ray
It's thundering and raining here in rural south Texas right now. I can't wait till it clears a little so I can go to Home Depot to buy the the hardware so I can build this jig. Thanks for this detailed video.
OK, I had given you a thumbs up, and I left a comment, then I finished the very last trailer and heard your exit music. I subscribed. Couldn't have been any more perfecter 🤣
Hahah. Thanks Jerry!
Amazing, huge time saver, thanks for sharing!
Good idea! We all have a way to get it done. Coming up with solutions and them working is golden!
Excellent explanation - Thank you for sharing with the world :)
This was a great video. You did a great job of explaining how to make a stair jig. Thanks for keeping the step by step instructions simple. This was very helpful.
perfeker! You learn new words every day. Great jig. It's perfeker!
That's a great tip. Thanks for sharing and for watching my video. I appreciate it!
Excellent! Very clear and precise demo on the tread and riser installation as well as the building of the jig.
+John Glista Thanks!
Great jig idea. Thx for posting the video!
I like how you took the time to explain how to make it! thanks. I'll try to make one tomorrow.
I've been doing stairs for many years using scrap and then striping in the edges your jig is great and a time-saver good job on your invention
Another great video. You do a great job in teaching how to do a project, keep up the good work.
I noticed you used sub treads and sub risers in your stairs. I wish more builders would plan them into their stairways. Makes the stairs usable throughout the construction process and really strong with no give what so ever. Great job
Man you gotta be kidding me. Amazing timing. Doing Stairs next week. This will be a huge help.
Outstanding. If you don't have time to make one of these then let me know. I have several already made up and can get one out to you next week. Jig, packaging, shipping probably be about $54 to get it to you in Cali.
I really admire your intellect and talent.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching.
AM VERY
GLAD I SAW this, I am going to retread our stairs AND this jig will be just dandy,
thank you very much
Thanks for checking it out, Harold. I have a much improved version of the jig for sale if you need one. There's a link in the video description box. I have em in stock ready to ship!
This was really useful! Thanks for showing how to do it!
Solid, helpful, useful, instructional video. No stupid music or intro clear delivery and you helped me out big time. Subscribed.
Alex Rodolfo Thanks! I appreciate the kind words.
Thank you Sir. Exactly what I need for my stair renovation. I sincerely appreciate the time and effort you spent explaining this jig and creating a video for my use. Best Wishes.
Awesome. Glad it helped out!
Beautiful. Good job! Thank you for your video.
Thank you. Great video with great instructions. I hope you've patented your device and the bucks are rolling in. You rock!
Thank you!!! Building this today has been a life saver for my nightmare stair project.
+motomome Yes!!!!!
Just watched you make the stair tread/riser jig. Very clear instructions, and I'm going to make one! Thanks for sharing...great tool!
John Hamilton Thanks for watching. Lemme know how it turns out. If you find any improvements then let me know!
This could be the great video I ever watched before starting to install hardwood on my three sets of stair well. Many thanks for sharing your thoughts as experts on building stairs to finish. Thank you
Thanks for the great feedback and kind words. I appreciate you watching!
Good job sr thanks for sharing your amazing ideas 💡
"Perfecter"
Love it...
I built your jig about a month ago with the intent of "Uncarpeting" construction grade interior stairs. Just finished the risers today and thanks to your jig I put out 13 perfect risers on all 13 steps. Couldn't be easier. I am looking forward to cutting and installing the oak treads this week. Thanks for the awesome video and the great jig!!!
Outstanding! I told you she'd work great. Glad they turned out so good. Send me a pic once you get em all done. I'd like to see how they turn out.
Dude, you rock! Thank you very much for the video. Awesome job.
Great job all the way around. Stumbled onto your channel because I was renovating my stairs. But now I plan on sticking around, subscribing and am really looking forward to checking out your other videos. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and expertise.
Thanks for watching my videos. I appreciate it and thanks for the kind words. Glad to have you as a subscriber! Good luck on your stairs and lemme know how it goes.
I just ran into your work with the FWW miter saw table, and bet you wish you had that as you built this jig. I have an unfinished 2nd story with a VERY rough staircase, and was puzzling over how to do measure the treads and finish it up. You solved that for me. Now, if I can just find the time to get around to that project along with the 183 other projects I have to set up a woodshop in my basement and go to town on working on this 100 year old house with a remodel 60 years ago! I love your attitude, and your attention to detail as you explain your work, and I look forward to building this and other projects after my gardening season here in South Bend, IN.
Dave McCracken Thanks for watching and sending me some kind words and encouragement, Dave. Sounds like you got your work cut out for you ole bud. :-)
Simple and Smart, Thanks for amazing idea. 2nd year in carpentry.
Excellent work, very creative with the jig. I like it a lot. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much!
I’ll be saving thousands by doing my house stairs my self !
Great piece of kit, extremely well explained , I like the way you showed how to use it then build it. Also liked the tip about using the chop saw with 3 plunges. Thanks really enjoyed watching. Dek Alan UK
+Derek Alan Thanks for watching and sending me some kind words, Derek. I really appreciate it!
Love it, well done. Merry Christmas
Very good video. Thanks for taking the time to post this.
BNG, that was the video I have been looking for. Your jig is a great idea. You gave me the confidence to move forward with replacing the stairs in my new home. I will let you know how it turns out. Keep the videos coming. I like the format and pace. I will keep my eye out for your other videos. Thanks
Very cool. Thanks for watching!
Thanks. I was just about to tackle a DIY stair job. This will really help.
Built your jig today works great thanks.
great idea. not only for stairs but anytime you need exact fit between two sides, i.e. counter tops, etc. thank you.
thank you very much for this great video. I made one just like the one you have and it works great. Thank you
Very helpful, thanks for taking time to make and post this.
ALISTAIR Q. Howard Thanks!
I loved this video. You did an excellent job. Fine craftsmanship my friend. Thank you for taking the time to do this video.
Thanks!
I am an Electrician with a habit of buying wood power tools all for DIY. I have a few jigs like this that i have made over the years and they do come in very handy. Keep up the good work and a big thumbs up to you.
Bill Parker Thanks for the encouragement, Bill. I appreciate you watching!
Nice job! I built one! Thanks for the info and time involved explaining! New Subscriber!
thanks for the info on the jig i made it to for about 11 dollars n it works slick as a whistles thank you very much
Hey buddy I built the Jig and used it to put wood on my stairs very similar to yours! Made the process very simple and easy to manage! Thanks for the awesome videos, love your channel! Keep them coming
Excellent video. you are one geared down guy. I liked your teaching method.
James Weissbach Thanks, James. I appreciate the kind words!
I almost bought one I glad I came across this video of yours Thanks saved me
Some money.
You're welcome. I'm glad you found some inspiration from the video. I have an updated design and there's a video of what it looks like on my main channel page. If you get to needing it right away and don't have time to build it then let me know. I keep several of the new ones made up and can send you one out right away. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for watching Jeremy. I really appreciate it. Your question is one of those where you might be reading into it a little too much. When I tell you the real reason I cut mine that way you are gonna be disappointed. :-) Ok, here goes, I planed my treads and my planer was acting up so it sniped the ends of the treads. I didn't want that part to show so I centered my cuts in a way that both of those bad ends would be cut off. Simple as that. Ha! If that were not the case I would have done exactly what you are wanting to do and save all that precious hardwood for another project!
blazingnailgun. I'm sure you know this but if you feed your boards at an angle it greatly reduces snipe on the ends. Great build by the way.
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing.
This is effing brilliant my friend!! Great jig and video!
Nice work. I appreciate the lesson.
You're welcome. I appreciate you watching and for the great compliment!
I'm building my jig right now thanks for the info very helpful, your video is good and the sound/voice very good.
Outstanding! Thanks for watching and good luck!
Thanks dude. I copied your jig and it worked great. Amazing what a difference a half degree makes.
Outstanding! Thanks for the feedback. Yep, miss it by a smidge and you burn a $40 tread!
Very cool tool and very well explained.
Man that's a great idea I made two of them by watching your video one for countertops and one for my stairs
I bought your Jig and am very happy with the results! Thanks for your videos and the jig. My only beef is that my wife saw your video on wainscoting and now I have another project! :-)
+Troy Woodford Hahaha! Thank you for the order! I really appreciate the support, encouragement, and kind words!
Excellent Video. Nice instructions on making the jig.
Debra Ross Thanks! I appreciate you watching.
Thanks for your response, I had my husband look it up, he is ordering one soon! 😄
I loved your video!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
great job. thanks for all the tips
I am in the process of doing my own treads and risers and I just happened across your video and it couldn't have been at a better time. Thank you for sharing this! I'm going to make one for myself and save myself a lot of headaches, especially since this house is an old farmhouse and nothing is square or plumb.
Paul Wheeler Outstanding. Glad it helped out. If you are in a pinch for time then I have several in stock and could get one out to you right away. Just follow the link in the video description box. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great job!! Thanks for taking the time to show us this!! (Y)
Erek Cyr Your welcome. Thanks for watching!
excellent instructions. Thank you.
You just saved me so much time. Thanks bruh!
Good deal! Glad it helped out.
Thanks for the vid! Great stuff!
I did some stairs for the first time last year. Two steps have gaps. This tool would have prevented that. Now I'm deciding whether to replace the threads and DO IT RIGHT! Awesome videos and explanations!
Yes!!!
You just save my life with that...thank u so much
Luiz Fernando Your welcome. Thanks for watching!
Great tool idea. Thank you!
PS: For marking dark woods, you can get
white marking pencils at such places as JoAnne Fabrics or hobby stores.
LOVE this jig just wish that i made one when I was working now Iam making one just to have on hand! thanks for the vid please keep them coming!
Good deal. Glad the video stirred your creativity. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great Video. Thank you for the tips
Great explanation on a very useful tool.
Gordon Hebron Thanks. I appreciate the great feedback.
I mean what kind of moron gives a video like this a thumbs down. Someone that was not hugged enough by his mother. Great video and thanks for your time to make it.
I was thinking that. Why would you not like a video???? If you don't like it, guess what, just move on. Life will go on.
@@95ffd well, I've seen some videos out there that definitely earned thumbs down from me but, trust me, they earned it! I can't see why someone would give this video a thumbs down.
It is the 5% rule. It means most video get an average of about 5% thumbs down.
I think the thumbs down are from employees of companies that make stair jigs 😜
I really enjoyed watching this video.
DeepOne Thanks!
love this video. went to the hardware store and bought all the material and built one myself that looks more like the version 2.0 you have on the other video.
also bought some 9 volt batteries thinking my smoke detectors in my house needed new batteries. came home and watched your video again and realized it was your smoke detector beeping. haha
Michael Redfern That dang detector drove me crazy until I found out that some hardwire detectors go hinky if you locate them too close to a fluorescent light. Yep, that's my problem....
Very cool jig...gonna make one for myself!!!
Отлично! Благодарю за идею!
You inspired me to build my shed. Unfortunately I ordered my lumber from Lowes and got complete junk. They failed to pick it up as well. My dream is mostly ruined but I will try and salvage what I have. I'm going to Home Depot or a local lumber yard for future lumber.
