And now the spindles go
up. I made spacers to hopefully insure they're evenly
spaced.

This is a very repetative

Ah. Looks

Here's my solution to the wiggly
posts. I had all these 2"x4" pieces left
over from the railings, so I started tacking them in between
the rim joist and the next jois back. They shored things up
pretty
well.

Before I could continue with the railing,
I had to do some deck alterations. The deck stretched all
the way to under the bedroom window. We found this to be a
security issue for two reasons. The first was access
to the bedroom and the second was access from the bedroom
in case a kid (i.e. hellian teenager) ever slept there. The
solution of course was to just square it
off.

With the rip of the circular saw it was
gone

It took a little more then that, but it
squared off nicely. I know, I know. Most people want bigger
decks, but this little sliver wasn't really providing us much.
Now you can see where it used to go under the bedroom
window.

It was the first of November when I got
back to this. The post at the house has/had issues with
stability. Took a while to get it acceptable. Once it was up,
I realized I had some issues with levelness. As the deck moves
away from the house, it drops off. Regardless it was important
the railing feel and appear level. Using one of my extra
2"x4"s I spanned the gap and did just
that.
