Step 3 · Prepare Tread Edges (Optional)

For a more finished look and to reduce the risk of snags or sharp edges, you can round over or chamfer the front edge (nosing) of each cut tread. Use a router with a roundover bit or a sandpaper block to achieve the desired edge profile. This step is particularly beneficial if the tread material has a sharp or unfinished edge.
