  • Stair Tread – Cutting

    Posted by jw.android66@gmail.com on November 29, 2024 at 4:34 pm

    Where I bought my lvp from had stair treads that matched I’ve attached a couple pictures but it looks like they are made out of pvc instead of lvp.

    I tried to cut them with my table saw that left nicks in the finish pretty bad and I’m just wondering is there a better way to cut this. Also have you ever installed anything like this in your work?

    I will get better pictures of the stair tread and measurements. I have ordered an 84 tooth saw blade that is specific to plastics so i hope that will help.

      Hi Joe,

      thanks so much – I hope that the tread will not chip too much – i wanted a full continuity of the tread rather then just a nose and plank. All of the nose options i looked at would leave a lip on the front of the tread. I haven’t got the new blade yet but hope the combo of blade and tape will keep the chipping to a minimum.
