Thanks for everybody's suggestions. Unfortunately, as Paul C. said this is not the only losing battle I'm fighting. The boss/wife fired me from the job ( and

I'd let your wife do it - they are always right . ( even when they're wrong)!

this made my day and made me laugh so hard I started choking (maybe it was the beer at the same time). So, since the boss decided I am too incompetent to do this she decided to call a professional, You can only imagine the smug expression on my face when he told her exactly what I have been saying before posting on this forum. I really liked the bullnose idea, but my concern is how sturdy it will be as it wouldnt be attached to the actual concrete slab, but be more of a floating piece supported only by the mortar filling the inside curve. Paul C's second post looks good, but these edge pieces are quite expensive and cuting so many is costly. 3_Fall's comment was a little hard to make sense of at first, but I think it is what I wanted to do from the get go... Anyways, once again.. Thank you for the advice.. Cheers! (oh, by the way, when the professional told her what I have been telling her the whole time, I got my job back and now she's bitching why it isn't done yet)

one last question. If cutting all the tread pieces, what is the best way to get a smooth grout line cut.. The wet saw or an angle grinder. I replaced the blade on my hand cutter, but sometimes there is still some chipping.

ok, I lied. I have another question. should the riser be above or beneath the tread piece below it. Im sure there is a post about this already or I can google, but I would rather hear your opinion.
