fyoucher1. take a closer look. it's not true nosing, it's more like a cap to cover up the installers sloppy finish cuts. it sit's on top of the flooring on the high side of the tread, you can see the discoloration of where it had been
- which would mean that the riser is level with the top plain of the flooring and he could cleat out on the inside of the joist and get enough meat to put someterry_cloth
- fucking grk's in there haha, let's see the lil bastard rip it out thenterry_cloth

Agree with terry not using brute strength. Don't know if you have to buy a specialty tool. Also I would say don't hammer that little bit broken off back into the board, might go though the other side and damage the other side. Do not bend that trim, keep it on a flat surface, use a block of some sort to pry against, something flat and firm so your not prying against the bottom side of the trim.
I like the liquid nail idea as it is less to buy for sure. If you used a nail, use a finishing nail with no head and be careful not to miss, you might also have to get a punch to have the top of the nail go below the face of the trim and some liquid wood to fill the hole.
if you have a weight set use those to push the trim down until the glue dries.

I was going to suggest yanking them with pliers earlier, but bowed to greater noluj.
I particularly love that your completed scene includes a case of beer
