How is the height on this? I’ve only tried pipe a couple times and i typically come around to it once every few months when i have 30 mins to prep pipe. I’m not striving for perfection with no experience at it, but how far off acceptable is it? Undercut is free of charge. I was waaayyyy to busy trying to rotate to bother worrying about that yet.

Looks ok. Typical WPS I’ve seen is no more than 3/32 for positive reinforcement.
I have more questions than answers

1st photo shows some light undercut on the toes. Need to get rid of that. Might want to run 2 smaller stringers instead of that one larger bead for a cap. Either that, or weaving your cap while holding the edges, if your allowed to.
