How much would you charge to replace railings and balusters on a pre-existing wood walkway?

Apr 18, 2008 by sahjmom | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling

The walkway is 36 feet great and has no landings. It is about 10-12 feet from the ground. We need to use presure treated wood.

not very much, occasion it would be horribly done.

What is the minimum width for balusters in Fairfax County, VA?

Oct 31, 2007 by Robert C | Posted in Do It Yourself (DIY)

I'm replacing wood with iron and I advice the iron balusters are thinner.

Most codes need pickets or balustrades to be 4" or less.

Is Hemlock a good wood for ornamental wood turning?

Nov 11, 2008 by fleacircusdirector | Posted in Engineering

Its tenable to by blocks of hemlock cheaply from my local DIY superstore (they are advertised as stair Balusters). I was wondering how this wood performed when turned or carved? Is there any correlation between this wood and the poisonous plant?
Its possible to buy blocks of hemlock cheaply from my local DIY superstore (they are advertised as stair Balusters). I was wondering how this wood performed when turned or carved? Is there any bearing between this wood and the poisonous plant?

Not sure if this is Eastern or Western Hemlock but the shop is in the UK

I have listed below the properties of Hemockk and the use mount. The tree has no connection to the poisionous plant to my knowledge.
