Court House Railing

R L Sidebottom - Friday, March 19, 2010 - 12:09pm

This is a stair rail that I completed and installed yesterday. It is about 10 feet long. I was asked to come up with a design that complimented the exterior of the building. Everyone was pleased with the out come.

Now one to the next one!

There it is! I guess I just needed to be more patient. On the other hand, I've just been waiting for an excuse to use that line about being 950 words short... (grin)

That looks really nice, Rick.

Thanks Rich. They were on a pretty tight budget, but they like it enough to want to do more later.

Nice work ! How've you fixed it?
I'm going off fixing plates or feet as no matter how carefully I measure I seem to end up with at least one floating in mid air....so tending towards core drilling and resin, or molten lead when I feel brave enough. (at least it's instant)

Anchoring things into cement

johndach - Saturday, March 20, 2010 - 5:16pm

Years ago (too many to figure) my folks had a swimming pool put in when they remolded our/their house in Long Beach CA., the diving board was elevated about 3 feet on a cement base. T install the "T" and "fulcrum" parts in this cement base, the contractor used melted sulfur. Reasons for sulfur: easy to chip out if the metal pieces ever need to be worked on, does not react with the metal pieces, bonds very well to the cement and the metal parts, and I don't remember any other reasons. The idea seemed to work well but the metal parts never had to be removed in the 20+ years they lived there and ultimately sold the home some years ago. Just a thought for any of you installing in cement or some such.
