John Kogel Posted July 25, 2012 Report Share Posted July 25, 2012 Gary's 2 X 4 stair rails reminded me of this place. The stairs don't comply with the building code because of the open treads, and I didn't measure the gap between the uprights, but it looks greater than 4". It's an art piece, so I wasn't going to be critical.

Jim Katen Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 It's got character. Character excuses a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtblum Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 That's a completely different level of talent above that pile of sticks I glued together. I'd bet you're looking at at least 30k there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Raymond Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Hey, you need a way to the second floor at your place. You should give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 Gary, If I were having a staircase built, you would be my choice! I prefer your work - lots easier on the inner ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtblum Posted July 26, 2012 Report Share Posted July 26, 2012 I didn't notice the detail in the newel or the wood balusters, the first time I looked. Sweet! The stairs don't comply with the building code because of the open treads John, did you happen to measure the distance between them. The treads look like they're about 2" thick. Depending on the rise, as long as you can't pass a six inch sphere between them, they would conform. BTW. Where can one purchase a 4 3/8" and a 6" sphere? Hey, you need a way to the second floor at your place. You should give it a go. Tom, I just ordered the stacked stone tile for the outside of the bar around the kitchen and am still three walnut doors away from finishing that project. I can't afford stairs.[] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
