Stairs finally finished ...

Here's the side view...there are a couple more shots on Flickr if you click through. All in all, they're sturdy and solid, and that's most important. Well, that and they look nice too.

I'm pleased with how they came out, though obviously a good carpenter would find a few imperfections (gaps don't match between every single board or step, use of shims to compensate for not-so-awesome stringer cutting).

Nonetheless, this part is done. New handrails, balusters, stringers, risers and treads.

Now, on to the surface decking, which will hopefully be the only thing I need to replace on the deck itself. I'm hoping that the joists themselves are in good shape. We shall see.
