I build custom stairs and every-so-often so straight finish as
well....for a living

Hi Joe,
A couple of weeks ago I asked for some advice on a stair railing (and
gave an unfortunately poor picture as a means of describing my
predicament). You replied that I had avoided the usual sequence with
this sort of work. That wasn't surprising because, a) I don't know the
usual sequence and, b) Just about everything in this house is done in
an odd sequence (my brother and I are building everything in our spare
time but we get a lot of pressure from family who want to use the
cabin for recreational purposes and so demand certain comforts). I
wonder if you could elaborate on the sequence that the pros use. Below
is a link to a better picture to hopefully refresh your memory.
