Nothing is square, and the winders are supposed to be 30 degrees but are not even close. The second floor to third has a 8 5/8" run and a 8 1/2" rise. Talk about steep, but the building inspector has been really helpful with us. Letting me duplicate what was there and not busting my beans.
Sometimes, there is no room is those old stairwells...
