The Baluster

One of the great perks of our new place in Massachusetts (besides the lower taxes) is the high speed internet. Uploading from this location is a breeze compared to our more rural locale in NY. Hopefully this will bring forth a new golden age of blog posting, well... maybe not, but there will be more pictures!

 

This is of course the baluster patterns that I spoke of. I like to turn the lower taper on the legs so that it straightens to a near cylinder shape at the bottom, that way when I trim the legs, the foot diameter doesn't widen too much.

Good luck!
