spiral staircase for loft
Got a little more work done (I'll upload some pics, then edit in the text on my laptop)
ok, so this first pic shows the left hand railing frame
i glued and screwed it together, then mocked it up and put a few drywall anchors behind it
i obviously wouldnt trust these anchors to hold it up, but i dont mind them for extra support

my little boy helping out, seems like it holds him up just fine
he better enjoy it while he can, because im sure once its done his sister will turn it into a "girls only" place
here i have both frames up
screwed into the deck, a few anchors in the left wall and ceiling, and a few more screws on the right wall (seems to be wood all the way)
if your wondering why there are 2x4s in the center, that is where the stairs will attach
finally, i started putting some slats up, tongue and groove
i had one more box laying around from when i insulated a shed
almost made it all the way across, but i was a few slats shy
i guess one more box of slats, some carpet and im done...except for the stairs
oh, and i know the railing is not up to code, im not worried about it, the wife allready informed me we will die in this house (she didnt give me a timeline on that one) so...not my problem
