Bannister nearly done in cellar
Nearly there. Ripped out the tongue and groove panelling that formed a floor-to-ceiling wall along the staircase in the cellar. Then:
(1) Put up a triangular stud wall along the stairs
(2) Kangoed a hole in the concrete floor for the newel post
(3) Fitted base rail and hand rail
(4) Fitted spindles
(5) Stained and varnished them all
(6) Plasterboarded and papered stud wall
(7) Painted 3 doors, skirtings, walls etc
Ruth and I have come to an understanding: I buy expensive new power tools, and she thinks up projects so that I can use them!
