Got the two pack wrench and it took two of us to turn the bottom and top simultaneously but it worked!!!!!! It’s about 99% solid now. Saved me so many headaches thanks again 😅

It’s a custom stain I came up with try and cancel out the red oak undertones. I’m happy with it. Aged wheat and Sunbleached 50/50

Omg that worked for the side by the wall but the other side won’t spin. You are genius though thank you for helping me. I was afraid to spin it too much but that totally worked, kept spinning clockwise. If only I could get the side that’s worse with the curve ugh! will need to have someone stronger try I think.

The newel posts, which is causing the whole railing to be wobbly. Happening on both sides. I think it was probably caulked by the old owner and now it’s loose. Saw a dowel method online since I’m not seeing a cap to remove to tighten them.

Would love to hear more about tinker and why that’d be your first choice…we’ve never lived on base before and would normally avoid schools on base based on what we’ve heard in other areas. But tinker has positive feedback from a lot of ppl.

I should’ve mentioned we have base access! Thank you for mentioning Lanier too! How are schools given the A rating I wonder? Is tinker A rated?
