		<description><![CDATA[These alder stair newels were turned for a customer in the Colorado Springs, CO area. They measure 5 1/2 inches X 44 inches. The newel cap is not shown but will match the handrail sample sent to me (below). Obviously the newels are over-the-post newels. The newel cap (with matching handrail profile) will be mitered [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[These columns (porch posts) were popular in the US in the 18th and 19th century. The chamfered edges terminate in a &#8220;lambs tongue&#8221;. By the way, a chamfer is a beveled edge connecting two surfaces. If the surfaces are at right angles, the chamfer will typically be symmetrical at 45 degrees (def. from wikipedia).

		<description><![CDATA[I suspect that most of my readers are more prone to traditional stair design because that is more of what I have posted about here and at Architectural Turnings. You may, however, like to see what others are doing (other architects and designers that is) in the design arena. At the least, you may have [...]]]></description>

This site is about architecture and design but has quite a huge number of posts related to stairs.

		<description><![CDATA[I occasionally have customers that request a staircase with large balusters. The challenge with creating a staircase with extra large balusters is two fold: The handrail size required by codes restrictions will not accommodate a large baluster top. As such, most manufactured handrails are designed for 1 1/4&#8243; or 1 3/4&#8243; balusters. It may be [...]]]></description>

In this post I would like to discuss the pilaster style mantel surround and some of the possibilities related to pilasters.

		<description><![CDATA[I should add at this point hat there are highly ornamented moldings that are made of wood. See below. These are not made in a molder (at least not the final product). They are hand carved &#8211; typically overseas. And therefore they are quite expensive. Which brings us to the last comparison that I will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And so what are the differences? A high degree of ornamentation is possible in polyurethane moldings that are not possible with wood moldings because of the the fact the the polyurethane is poured into a mold. However, because of the physical constraints of the polyurethane molds, shorter length moldings are the norm. Polyurethane moldings can [...]]]></description>
