Flip and in the door

Bob and helpers used the tractor to flip the stair assembly with all but four of the stair treads (two top and two bottom) removed.  With Bob at the controls, we did the preliminary positioning with the tractor to run them into the house using saw horses.   Although the treads are black cherry, seasoned by air drying for four years - the stringers are white pine, seasoned for only two days........  They were a little sticky to handle.....
From here they are guided to the porch and "roller" logs (that's double duty for the future stair railing posts).


The "from" view of running the stair assembly in.
