For those who followed my series, I totally forgot to post pictures of my stairs after it was completely done, sorry guys and gals. A close up of how flawlessly the treads and risers fit into the routed stringers, (see part 5 for pics of the stringers and how it's put together). Yes, there is a kink in the wall rail, due to a run change between the upper 7 treads and the lower 4 treads, (see part 6 as to why). The top of the balusters fit into a hole drilled in the underside of the rail, the bottoms sit in a hole drilled into the tread, epoxy is put into the holes on the treads to keep them from moving and rattling, small pin nails are shot along side of the balusters on the top to keep them from rattling, basically the nails wedge the balusters against the rail. I used small trim screws to secure the left side of the tread to the stinger and placed the screws so that the shoe on the balusters would cover them. Also got the sliding barn doors done that encloses the utility room, and am currently working on the curved bar. Looks like a small bar, but the bar top will overhang by 10-12"  which will in effect make it bigger. 

Oh my! OH MY! Kenny!

What a work of art!

Spectacular!!

 

I love the grain in that wood!!

HOLY SHMOELY!!!

I am speechless!

Great job on the finish.

Beautiful Kenny!! So how do you get down and up from that level? You surely don't allow people to walk on that masterpiece do you?

Thanks for taking us along on this journey...learned a lot and appreciated the awesome craftsmanship!

What a Masterpiece

Masterful work, Kenny. Tastefully done. Speaking of taste, I like your back bar stock.
