Well it took about a month’s worth of work days but I have finally come to the end of the flooring project. Thank you very much for your prayers and confidence given through your guidance. I need your advice on how to finish the steps around the banister post base. The steps had carpet which allowed it to appear to be done well. Specifically around the outside of the last 2 steps. How would you make the post look clean? my brain melted when i got to the end of the steps. I would like to use the nose rail pieces on the ends of the tread and riser but around the bottom of the post it doesn’t look right? I thought of nailing a stained piece of oak to the post going half way up the outside then cutting the top at an angle. Please advise what you would. Hope the pictures help. Thanks in advance. Frank
I was also going to cut and move the chair rail away from the top step and re-nail it so there is room to put the nose rail on the riser end.
