I wish fitting handrails and spindles was this easy, I know it’s a short video but for people who haven’t done this before it can be quite difficult ( I’m a chippy with 37 years experience)

Hi sir I’m interested to learning about the fully staircase fitting and make it if have best idea for me please

[VanJonez]

how do you screw the top end of the hand rail ? the bottom is straight forward, but the top end angle does not allow a screw to drive in straight. Do you have to drill a long screw pointing upwards and inwards a little bit ? thanks

[mengditurbutt-cai]

What height and how do you measure the height of the handrail ?

[pauleacock]

Loads of information missed out on this I’m afraid, what to do if the newel post is not square, max spacing is 100 mm, how to work out the spacing for the spindles, how to work out for the fillets

[LukeGilsenan]

will all spindles be the exact same length?

[jamesgreen]

Missed out loads of information, such as maximum spacing aloud, and how to work out length of the spacing for equal gaps all the way

Hi, what is the gap of spindles?
Thanks

[gardenrose]

The stairs look lovely but unfortunately, as a person who is just learning, there is a lack of information. You don't say what you use for the fillers in between the spindles, no idea how you decide how many spindles I need, how to cut the shape for the bottom of the spindles etc. This isn't a video for a newby... 😢

You need to work out the spacing first.

Spacing looks wider than 99mm to me. And why cut one spacer to the angle and the other end at 90 degrees? Just keep the saw set at the same angle and use a staff/marker. Is it me or is this video misleading and low in proper information?
