I just finished making some stair nosing, and I'm wondering how others would approach it. The shape is similar to this
333586 but 4.5" wide and the thickness is .301 on the thin side and 1.00 on the bull nose 1.25" projection.
I ended up cutting the bull-nose first with a outboard fence, then came in and removed most of the rabbet with a 60mm tall rabbet head and a plywood zero clearance fence. The remaining stub was cut off on the ts, since I got horrible tear out when I tried to do it with the rabbeting head face down.

Anything I should have done differently?
