In home workout?

Mr. Perfect
I must say that moving, measuring, and cutting and fitting white oak stair treads on two stair cases is likely the only workout a person would need. I think every muscle group is involved. Each tread weighs close to 20lbs and with 13 treads per staircase and two spares that's 560 lbs to move around and between floors.  It am beat today.

    There are only two construction jobs that are worse, IMO, roofing and hanging sheetrock on a vaulted ceiling without a lift.

    Insulation, even though it is plenty light to handle, is the top of my least favorite list, followed by roofing and sheetrock.  
    Let's see a picture of your stairs when you get 'em all put together, Randy!

    Will do. I should have it put together this week.

    ETA and I should specify, there are a lot of construction jobs that I find undesirable (fixing sewer lines, for example) but these three are probably the most physically demanding I have ever done, and I've done just about everything.
