   Stubby, first you come here with a haunted door, and now you've got a fun house stair. What'sup dude?

   There is no formula, get more scraps and dimoxidil.

   The pieces running at 45 will need to be wider than the common runs.

   Better check the code to see if a 2" wide handrail will pass. It's 1 5/8" wide here.

   *Hi Stubby.If I understand you correctly, what you need is a small ramp, same slope as stairs, so that the railing wood rests on an angle as you push through the band saw.Hope this helps.

   *Stubby, sorry, I don't know what I was thinking (or wasn't thinking). Dimoxidil OD, I guess. Blue's right on. Drops or risers, and/or newels.If it's on the open side of the steps, I'll tack, or clamp, some verticle 1x4 to the zigzaggy( that's for you Andrew d) part of the stair carriage and spring clamp a 1x4 temporary handrail to them at the appropriate height. You can figure all your handrail intersections, cuts, newels and heights if you need them, from your temporary.If it's on the closed side of the stairs, you don't need the verticals, Lightly pencil (the painter will be much happier than if you use chalk) lines on the wall.You should still have some hair left by the time you're done.
