Hardwood Floors Part 4: First Flight of the Stairway

I am covering the stairway with engineered hardwood to match the floor downstairs.  I glued the flooring planks together and then used Liquid Nails Subfloor to bond them to the stair treads:
I used a few buckets of rocks to weigh down the planks as the glue dried:
Detail of coping around molding:
Treads and risers done, ready for the landing:
The bullnose for the landing needed to be keyed to fit:

The width of two planks didn't fit exactly in this corner, so I had to rip the first one shorter and route a new groove in it so that it could mate with the second one:


The finished flight of stairs:
