It is designed after my N108 with the exception of being eight sided. The customer wanted an ivory looking top turned in the newel cap. We used Corian

This cap is exceptionally large. I have a feeling they may ask me to make another once they realize how big it is.

I just made these for newels for a customer in New York. The barley twist newel is fashioned after my barley twisted island leg. This particular customer wanted smaller newels so I made them 3 1/2 inches wide by 48 inches high. The other two newels are smaller versions of my N104. These are crafted from Red Oak.

Pictured below is an image of a custom newel and baluster set I made for a customer in the North East. The newel is a modification of a newel that I had done previously. It is based on an Enkobol design (without the carving). I think what I like about this particular design is the large base relative to the smaller turned area at th e top. The base is 4 1/4″ square in width. The top diameter is 3 1/2″. It is made in two parts to eliminate wasting wood. This one is in walnut. The balusters with he long pin tops are made of poplar and will be painted.
This customer is replacing the original newel and balusters but will keep the original handrail with the “turned down” end. That is, where the handrail attaches to the newel there is a scroll that turns down to connect to the newel.

This is a follow up on a previous post on a round base newel. This newel was originally requested by a custom that liked one of the newels offered by LJ Smith Stair Co. They wanted something a bit larger,however, so we made a 5 1/2 inch version. This round base cherry version went to Anchorage, AK. I think it came out nicely.

I get a lot of questions regarding some of my over the post newels and how to attach the rail to the newels cap. So I created this little sketch up drawing to help my customers understand the relationship between the newel cap and the rail fitting. See below:

The handrail fitting is attached to the newel cap by cutting a pie shape out of the newel cap and a corresponding point is cut on the rail fitting. After being fastened together, they are glued to the pin on top the newel.

I have a customer that liked the 3010 LJ Smith design newel but wanted it larger with a round base. I haven’t made the newel yet but I thought I would post the image that I made for them. They also wanted a round base. This one measures 7″ in diameter at the base and will be crafted in cherry. I used Google Sketch-Up for the 3D rendering.

Here is a newel I just finished in oak. It is 8″ at the square X 48 inches high. The cap has a 6010 handrail profile and will miter into the rail.

I often receive calls from customers regarding newel caps and how they work. I though I would post this as a reference for my clients.
There are generally three ways of attaching handrails to stair newels. The first and maybe the most common is called “post-to-post”. In this case the handrail is attached to a “flat” on the newel post . You can see this below in Type A.

Type B and Type C are both examples of “over-the-post”. In this scenario, the handrail is continuous, not stopping between the newels. These newels are often called “pin” tops because of the dowel pin used to fasten the rail fitting or cap to the newel. (Note that in type B I am not showing the pin but have instead drawn the cap fitting over the pin) In type C, a rail fitting is purchased from the stair parts supplier and fitted over the pin. This fitting is joined to the handrail by the installer.
In the case of type B, the cap is custom made by the turner to match the profile of the handrail. (see the drawing below)

This drawing depicts the pin on top of the newel for joining the newel cap as well as a “birdseye” view of the cap and the mitered joinery to the handrail.

These fluted balusters in soft maple were made for a customer in Mass.
