Nice! I’d of incorporated some oak spindles, possibly all or one every other with a basket in them. That would of looked ace emoji108.png

Spot on comment. Spoils a nice place to me as the stairs tend to be the main focus of an open plan room like that.Looks more suited to a commercial building like an office or bank.

Cant comment on the look/blend towards the rest of the house cos not seen rest of it, it may well blend spot on with the rest of its surroundings, like with the windows in the pic etc.
Defo agree with others though, wouldnt be able to design/manufacture/build/install/buy that staircase for £2k with all processes and man hours required to achieve. Sorry Les your on a loser with that one.

An example of how i work.I did a deal on the big ash below and this is the one you see in the photo on the first post being milled.The slab on the same post i sold this afternoon has all but paid for the whole tree and 2 hours work at most. 20+ more slabs to come out of it next week if all goes to plan ? 6 slabs on order ready ?

2k for that staircase? It would seem it isn’t only the arb industry that suffers with the race to the bottom ??

He'd made a statement that he felt he couldn't back down from so he carried on, his mate Steve the fabricator couldn't possibly make, blast, powder coat and deliver that steel work for anywhere near £15 hundred quid. It would take 3-4 blokes a day to hand ball (no machines, its indoors) that steelwork into place never mind the fitting of it. Then the joiners in to do the woodwork.
