That before-and-after of my first staircase redo versus last week's job looks like two different people built them

First one I did in 2019 took me three days and had gaps you could fit a nickel through, but last week I knocked out a full set of oak treads in six hours with zero gaps, mostly because I finally stopped rushing and actually measured each tread twice before cutting - anyone else see a huge jump in quality after a few years in the trade?

Did you ever find yourself talking to the wood after the third measurement?

Measuring twice is the only real shortcut worth taking.
