Oh wow Im jealous Brent! Thats an amazing transformation. Mines are in wood but very old 1998 look. In Canada we cant install horizontal railing because kids could climb it, so the vertical posts or glass panels is about the only choices. Great project as always and hope to see another video soon.

@rperez42651 21 күн бұрын

Looks great! Question though, how does the height of the stair railing feel? Since you added the wood blocks, it’s raises the height of the railing 5-6”. So with the 36” height of the posts, that puts the total height to around 41-42”. Seems kinda high … thoughts?

@Sylvan_dB Жыл бұрын

It looks great, but I have no trust for those screws and that structure. railing posts and fastening are under a lot of stress and nothing there gives me any confidence based on failures I've had to fix.

@BYOTools Жыл бұрын

I feel if you felt this structure you may be singing a different tune. Extremely solid and I have zero worries long term. Unless someone takes a sledge hammer and a reciprocating saw to it like I did I think we will be ok. But will make sure to let everyone know if issues occur down the road. What failures have you seen in the past? Where they with posts like this one? Thanks for watching and your support in any case.

@AlexRodoni Жыл бұрын

I know @sylvan_db ‘s feeling. If you watch videos from “finish carpentry TV” or “insider carpentry” the newel posts I’ve seen them install on staircases were buried all the way through the staircase or they used super long 3/4” or 1” threaded rod and those suckers didn’t budget one bit

@Sylvan_dB Жыл бұрын

@@BYOTools Usually the issues are caused by using screws or lugs into pine/fir to fasten the post. They loosen up over time. The fix is thru bolts but even those loosen up as the relatively soft wood compresses so it is necessary to retighten as they do in order to prevent outright failure. Fixing posts like yours with a screw from the top and no lower access, I've had to drill out for a 1in hardwood dowel for each screw. Hardwood (preferably maple) keeps screws tight longer and can be retightened more times before needing replaced.

Not sure if I missed it, but if you are cutting the other end of the wire at 1.5 inches how do you crimp it ? I was thinking it wouldnt extend out far enough

@Sylvan_dB Жыл бұрын

Crimp the fitting then thread it thru the post. The fitting extends past the end of the wire.

@Sylvan_dB Жыл бұрын

@@lawrenceporter7753 yes, then a cap is threaded on to hold and tension it. If cut too long, cannot tension so must cut off the end and crimp on a new one.

View rail is as ugly as they come. They provide cover plates to hide those disgusting welds. Hope that the powder coat isn't going to crack or flake. If you want a real sexy railing that screams quality...hit up AGSStainless.
