Test a solid (not grooved) scrap of Fiberon to see if I can use a sander to ease the edges for the handrail.Cut and install a sample riser (tread 1 on the upper deck). If it seems to work, buy more rough sawn fence boards at Lowes and cut and install all the risers.- Finish drilling and screwing the tread slivers and fill in the missing screws on the other tread boards.
- Install another 2x8 block at the east prow to receive a screw
- Protect the deck and give the railing another coat of black stain
- Continue black stain on the underpinnings (now or later)
- Order the parts for the cable rail:
- 400-500' of 1/8" 1x19 t316 stainless steel wire rope ($100)
- Hydraulic crimper and wire cutter ($106)
- 72 pairs of swage screws (CKE?) ($180)
- 32 through-sleeves* (I'm not sure they'll fit in the 2x4 mid supports)
- Finish design of electrical system
Order the 102' outdoor lights (Banord, $86).- Order the under-railing LED strip lights?
- Cut and install the handrail
- Design the basement stairs enclosure
- Order the Bilco door?
