Well, it is the end of day two and we actually have a set of stairs that you can walk up – albeit without a hand rail.
The treads and the risers are made of solid oak. These are glued and screwed to the softwood frame underneath. Here we have half of the treads in place.

Only the top step is left to install. The space under the stairs will house book shelves.
The treads and risers seem to “float” over the edge of the internal splines. This staircase feels so much more solid that the temporary one we had installed before.
