- Hey everyone! I have put together this video after many questions from the flips I have done. HOW did I make the railing? Its really not hard at all! Follow along and just make sure to measure your space more then once and really be sure of your plan before cutting anything.
Thanks to my sponsor Craftsman and Dewalt Canada for making this video possible!
There is no exact material list since every railing is different but the dimensions of what I used are listed below.
The bottom and Top rails are 1.5 inches thick by 3 inches wide.
The posts are 3 inches by 3 inches
- I got all my wood from East Coast Specialty Hardwoods in Burnside and the custom milled everything for me out of Poplar.
The glass I used is 1/4 thick tempered that I custom ordered.
I also used construction adhesive
Clear flexible adhesive/caulking
4 inch screws
Natural wood fill
Sanding pads
Polyurethane
Tools:
Mitresaw
Table saw - if you are cutting the relief cuts yourself, but your local mill shop can also do this for you.
Drill
Multitool
Measuring tape
Pencil
Speed Square
Sander

@@dawnewalker7629 thanks Dawne!!
@DCWOODWORKS Happy New Year !
Love the tutorial! Just wondering about the costs? Thank you!
Thanks! im glad you enjoyed it. It really depends on the size of your railing etc but these panels were each under 100$ and the wood was about 400$. Over all its under 1000$ for this size.
I hope that helps!
Very nice work. I know what you mean by not wanting to take the whole skirting board out ha. Great tool to go around that.
right? it makes so much less work!
@@dcwoodworks it does indeed. If I had more money for more tools like these I'd be a happy guy ja
@@just_budha212 this one isn’t very expensive. Under 100$ usually. Plug ins are always cheaper also
@@dcwoodworks oh that's good. Thanks
Did you finish the wood? Looks great!
Thanks! What do you mean by finish?
Where did you order the glass from? I live in the dmv and you made this look so simple!
Whats the dmv?? Theres a local glass company near me that will cut glass to any size you need. Theres probably one near you!
Sorry I thought dc meant the capital.
@@lostquartermaster52 oh haha no worries! No it’s my initials
@@lostquartermaster52 I’m in Canada
Beautiful❤ you are
Glad you liked the video!
@@dcwoodworks I like that 🥰
Where did you order the glass from?
I got it from my local home depot.
My railings are 6ft long should I have 3 post or 2 ?
I would personally do three. So your glass panels are just under 3 feet each. That will look really nice
@@dcwoodworks . My mistake I ment to say there 5 ft should I do the same ?
@@fineye5 I still would I wouldn’t have a single panel over 3 feet long. Just my personal preference but I think it would look funny if it was too much glass.
@@dcwoodworks okay thank you so much!
@@fineye5 no problem! Good luck with it
Where did u source the glass?
I use a local company to me called Halifax glass
No gloves? I must be too soft..
Hahaha. No I don’t like wearing them. I feel like it’s actually more dangerous because you don’t have full use of your hands. They get in the way. In my opinion
@@dcwoodworks Same! The only gloves I've ever tolerated were fingerless, and even then I had to get a warning splinter to put them on.
@@thanatossassin haha. See you get it. even the slimmest gloves make me feel like my hands only work at 80%
It will hurt babies
Lol what a comment. No it will not.
It has to be tempered glass, she didn’t mention that, yes plain plate glass would be super dangerous
