Default alternate tread stair question

In article ,
says...
Thanks for all the replies...I remember seeing the show with the dowel
repair...I did not notice that the treads in the link I posted are
plywood. I can get 1" maple plywood here, so I will see if the
interested party would consider that...

You can also make your own 'ply' by using 2@3/4" boards on top of each other
with the joint staggered horizontally:
________________

then cut your treads out of that --- that should be quite strong. Laborious
though.
