Hey all, he is a piece of balustrade that I had to make to replace the old one that is on the first floor landing.
Material is real nice pine from Europe,,some old stuff that I machined and the inside looks like it was cut down a few years ago :lol: .

Simple M&T ,Height is a meter high according to the law thats the height they wanted.

Good to see you're still 'living the dream,' Francois! Your post brings back memories of those beautiful yachts you worked on. You're a great craftsman. Keep us posted on this build.
good luck,
Don

Looks great Francois, btw it was 33F here today, yea, yea I know it does not correspond to C but you were far more comfortable than we are right now.

P.S. I just check a conversion table, forget it 86F is too hot for me, :wink:
