I don't understand enough,as I'm enjoying following this thread, but hope to ask: Why 3 stringers? Does one go in the middle?

Yes one goes in the middle and I found over the years there is less chance of the steps warping .

Re: [BlindHandyMan] Larry and wood
If you like skip the risers or back kick plate and use just a couple of decking boards for the threads. I think they are 1 1/8 x 6 inch. I like screwing them down. Three screws per board. This gives about 11 inch thread. I screw the boards down tight against each other and the shrink to about a 1/4 crack. These seem to hold up well with a little care.
