Default Tread brackets howto?

Hi,

I would like to replace tread brackets on my staircase and all I know
that a scroll saw is the best tool to cut out the shape.

I will be happy with any advice on the subject, but I'm particularly
wondering what material to use for the brackets (meant to be painted)
and how to attach them.


Either #2 pine or plaster, and either finish nails or glue,
respectively. Shellac the pine or the knots will bleed
through the paint.
