Spindles part 1

Didn't get anything done with the spindles on Sunday except to measure and mark their locations. Went to Menards today to buy 96 spindles (42" 2x2, one tapered end, on sale for 89 cents each) and two more pounds of deck screws. 60 spindles are installed so far. It takes extra time because they're so thin you have to predrill the screw holes so the spindles don't split when driving the screws. Anyway, looks good so far but no pictures yet. Will finish tomorrow and take pictures then.
