Winder Step railings

stix48 | Posted in Construction Techniques on

How does one have a continuous railing for winder stairs.  I approach the right angle corner  by setting the lower level rails and  the upper landing rails and set them at the legal heights and they do not meet at a common point. What do you suggest I do? thanks stix
