I have upgraded the way I make my stair router jig. I have found this to be a better solution than just having a raw ply edge. I line the edge of my jig with hardwood strips for the router guide to slide against. You should have something that resembles the profile for the stair housing including wedges.

My risers are 15mm thick so at the top they are 19mm and the bottom is 29mm.

Repeat this process for the rise but compensate for the thickness of the risers.

I allow 10mm taper so at the back of the tread I allow 39mm.

For instance, if your tread is 1 inch or 25mm allow 29mm at the front of the tread but at the back, you will need to allow for the taper of the wedge.

Allow for the clearance of the guide insert (for the purpose of this tutorial we will allow 4mm but your router and guide may be different).

Mark two lines parallel with the face lines.

The taper of the housing needs to be about 3/8 of an inch or 10 mm for the length of the rise and the length of the going.

The wedge will force the tread to the top edge of the housing? This will be a much neater finish what is the traditional way of building a staircase. The taper is for the wedge to slide into once the tread and The rise are in position.

Because this stair jig is designed for use with wedges the housing for the stair treads and risers need to be tapered.

This will represent the top of the tread and the face of the rise.

Using a pencil draw the right angle on the plywoods.

Approximately 2 inches 50 mm from the corner of the square to the edge of the plywood approximately.

This represents to rise and the going of each tread.

The narrow face of the square where should be facing at 90 degrees and the longer leg of the square should be parallel with the edge of the bench.

Using your framing Square place the square ninety degrees to the edge of your bench.

Place plywood Square onto the 45-degree angle.

Draw line on the bench at 45 degrees from edge.

Step by step of marking out the position of the tread on the new jig I have also made a video which you can see me make my jig. I have put together this tutorial and a step by step of me making my jig. If you are still considering making a stair router guide or jig.
