hard to justify buying one of these but would be great if you made
custom staircases

good for ballisters and railings and furniture even


But were is the fun in that? ;-) Its much more "fun" to lay one out by hand, cut it with a sequence of saw, chisel, file and sandpaper - then find out you have the spiral going backwards. Of course I NEVER did that, right? Right !! :-)
