The best I’ve seen Great workmanship 👍

Thanks a lot!

[@frd3fadi]

I do flooring everyday I learned a lot from you. U are one of the best installers I ever saw Thanks boss

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi Mohammad, thanks for warm comment!

[@kcaran]

Thank you so much for this video! I would have really struggled without it. The featherboard and clamped top fence really help.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Glad it helped!

[@mars0692]

Thank you for putting up that video. I had tried putting a store bought stair nosing and staining it. The result was not good at all. However, your solution using the floor boards to make my own turned out great.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Glad it helped

Today you'll see a small tutorial about how to make a stair nosing out of hardwood flooring bards. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for watching.

MrYoucandoityourself good morning. Mind if I ask where you are from? I always enjoy your videos. The stairs looks great! Thnx for sharing.

Hi my friend, from Vancouver, BC. Thanks for watching!

@@MrYoucandoityourself would you do a stairway with 15 steps in Seattle? I'm in a similar situation where I need a bullnose made out of engineering hardwood boards

[@gbengoosewuru4139]

Good morning @MrYoucandoityourself I have 1/2" thick solid bamboo floors. I dont have all the tools or skills that you have. Can I make a stair nosing by rounding over the edges of two pieces then gluing and nailing them together?

[@aericc]

dude this is genius. Thank you

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

I am working on it!

[@toodlican]

Pretty nice work. Never seen it done that way. Thanks for sharing

Hi, Thanks for commenting!

[@jansenwiley2682]

at 7:07 you say you use "inch and 1/8 nails... something gauge" I cant make out the Gauge you said? Can you please clarify? Thank you.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

1inch and 1/8 - 23 Ga pin nails.

[@sammyfrank4875]

Do you router the edge of the stair nose? Will it be shard on the cut?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Yes, I do, than I put stain and finish to the bevels.

[@Mrdubomb]

I made my nosings from engineered hardwood too, but I used wee little brackets from the underneath and it holds great, no nails, brackets and glue.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Good for you!

very good ... thank you for sharing

[@demcomp]

Great job! Just what I was looking for. Changing my carpet stairs to HW. But didn't want to spring for the over price hw nosings they sell in store.. Yeesh! Plus they wouldn't match the colour of my flooring.

[@luannguyen-rh6nq]

Can you show how you do the stair nose with bamboo floor planks please?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi Luan, Last bamboo floor I did more than one year ago. I don't have a resent job with this material. Sorry.

[@luannguyen-rh6nq]

@@MrYoucandoityourself thank you for the response. I tried to do the nose that you showed but of course using the gun splits or chips the wood where the nails goes in. Wish i would have know, i wouldnt work with bamboo floor. Any tips from you would help. Thanks again.

[@splash5974]

@@luannguyen-rh6nq If its solid bamboo, you could always use a round over bit for the front of the nosing, then just refinish where you routered the edge. I did something similiar with bamboo, as a transition going into my bathroom with tiles... My bamboo is natural colour, so all i did was brush on some clear polyurethane to seal the edge back up. Once it dried, you cant tell the difference from the rest of the flooring.

[@atkgrl]

You don’t show the angles after you cut or how to staple the together or a close up of how it looks

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi, maybe this video will help you, here is more explanation. thanks for your question!

[@atkgrl]

MrYoucandoityourself ?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Yes.

[@patless74gaming]

the amount of pin nails being put make sure the glue holds, it acts as a clamp. I get that. But the sheer amount of nail ''holes'' isn't noticeable? once you handle these, you have to see them right? Can you tell when you walk on them that they were ''nailed'' together?

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Hi Patrick, I used pin nails 23 Ga - it's not visible and hold very good. Thanks!

[@splash5974]

He is using a pin nailer, not brad nails. Once the glue dries, the glue gives it the strength, not the pin nails. They just act as a clamp til the glue sets up. And they are so small, you probably wouldnt notice any holes, and other people definitely wont notice!

[@222Lightning]

I make "nosing" stair treads at my work as part of my job and I don't know what this video is even showing him doing. I am here because a coworker said I should post a video to youtube as a joke because I am sort of the "trainer" of new employees.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Easy to criticize other, can you show your skills, please. Thanks

[@222Lightning]

@@MrYoucandoityourself nobody is criticizing. I'm just stating I don't know what your video is showing. Looks like you are cutting risers or something. I do 2'' Tread nosing for stairs....not at all what I see in your video.

[@user-gs5dx8gl1y]

If you can’t figure out what he is doing then you probably shouldn’t be making these yourself. I only install and I can see what he is doing.

[@222Lightning]

attn df tough guys......I was only pointing out that what he is doing is nothing like what at the stair company I work for......calls "2 inch Nosing treads" which often have "open" risers and is a challenge to get the returns to match up perfectly and look professional from 6inches away. We use a shaper on the return side and an attachment piece to get 2 inches. My favorite thing to do is a "2inch double open riser w a bulldog". Y maybe you shouldn't have access to the internet LOL!

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Thanks!

[@marcosorgini6027]

Very interesting, the edge is too sharp and won't last very long without splintering. In the Toronto area, that is considered a hack job by diy's . Never ever use flooring on treads. Buy solid treads or veneered treads with solid nosing. So easy to match stain colors. Do it right!!!! Just my opinion...been a G C for 35 years and when I see this type of practice, just infuriates me. Sorry man ...also learn the proper way to use a table saw.

[@MrYoucandoityourself]

Find my other videos , I showed there how make small bevel and stained it.

[@marcosorgini6027]

MrYoucandoityourself I find that you are very talented...in Canada it's not permitted. I haven't seen your video on how you gave a round over bull nose. Cheers

[@splash5974]

@@marcosorgini6027 Don't tell him that its not permitted! Lol Just say its not your way of doing it... I live in Canada, 2 hrs from Toronto, you can do what you like when finishing stairs. Theres no rule to this! Whether its rounded over, or bevelled, or not. Plus i can tell you of some of the hack jobs i see...doesnt matter where you live. Hacks are everywhere! Lol But i do agree, as someone with 2 children, the sharp edges wouldnt last long in my house.

[@MrLucifuge1973]

It is not permitted because we "real" installers know it wont hold up. Most engineered is finished with just a few mm's of actual hardwood. It is common sense. It will splinter and end up in someone's foot. We are taught this by "real" installers who figured this out 50 years ago and passed that knowledge down. It may look nice and I've done it bc the customer swore up and down that is how they wanted it. 2 weeks later I'm back replacing them. Smiling my ass off when they hand over the grand I charged them to fix it. @@splash5974

[@splash5974]

@@MrLucifuge1973 I get what you're saying...but it is your opinion. That doesnt mean permitted or not permitted. That is not regulated by an installer! There is no rule in place for a hard corner, or bevel on stair nosing. If so, tiled stairs would not be permitted...but in fact they are!
