Above: is a balustrade built using 1 1/2 inch stainless steel tubing with Red Oak Newels.

Scroll work can be accomplished from
pictures or drawings... the baluster shown is an example of
scroll work that makes a personal statement in your home that "off

originated as a black and white copy of a magazine
page.
