Winder staircase in knotty pine and red oak
-
Put the upper treads in yesterday and today. Starting out, it was taking me almost two hours per, but one per by tread #13. Thanks to Sketchup for helping me map this out and get it built. The carriages (seen in xray) were pattern-cut from full sized templates printed to paper and glued to the LSL stock. I exported each part to Chief Architect, and printed from there.
Balustrade next.

Beautiful... I wouldn't mind having that.

Nice work, Gene.
After modeling it in SketchUp, did it ever feel like you were building it for a second time?
-
all the time

Beautiful job. An attractive and innovative way to add interest and solve (I assume) a space problem. How you laid out the tread plan, I'd like to know but it probably isn't easy to explain.

Looks fantastic!
