I based off the original staircase that was built from 2" woodstock.

Plus it will make getting things up/down out of the basement easier.

I just found a wood working saw made by Festool that is called a tracking saw. I functions as a circular saw, but then you can also slap the 42" (other sizes as well) track guide on it and hold precision angles and cut lines. I got a "woody" when I saw it demonstrated. Also found that they make stops you can put on a framing square that allows you to set your rise/run and simply mark and slide down the 2x12 for laying out. SUPER FAST! and accurate.

BTW - I wouldn't attempt to make a 6R80 transbrake kit on a later model Coyote or rebuild a shortblock so we are almost even. You still have the more coveted edge though IMHO.
