A little bit of woodwork

Our house was (first) built almost 40 years ago and that probably means these steps are about that age. The concrete slabs have been holding up very well but their wooden frames were so thin, cracked and rotten about 2 years ago that we decided to throw them out and just rebuild them.
Before installing these boards, we cut them to size and stained them with a reddish brown colored stain.
All the pieces were drilled and screwed together at their corners.
Thank you Silvestre for your help with this project!
