Excellent and thank you! I actually have some questions on what power tools and kind of nailer I need. What would you recommend? If you where to redo, what would have been nice to have? Thank you very much. Your finished work looks amazing!

Yes, we love the shortened nose piece. I love it because it is a nice transition from the carpeting at the top of the stairs to the stairs below it. From the bottom of the stairs, it looks complete having that nose piece there. Without it, it didn't look right. We have thought about putting wood floors upstairs, but right now, we've decided against it. We like the carpeting. Also, the dark wood stairs do show dirt easily, just like dark wood floors. If we do eventually put wood upstairs, we will not use dark wood because it does show dirt easily. Hope this helps!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03605527203079798732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6540334987697686959.post-7781844122747800802012-12-13T15:21:27.898-05:002012-12-13T15:21:27.898-05:00Thank you for your blog about the staircase.

Now that you've lived with the finished project for a while, I have one question. At the top of the stairs, are you happy with the shortened nose piece? Or do you wish you'd left an entire wood "step" at the top of the stairs? I'm trying to get my head around the best way to do that.
