DIY loft conversion cost, trials, tribulations and triumphs. Friday, August 15, 2008. Spiral stair central column - a once in a lifetime experiance. This was one of those challanges I like to prove I can do, but am glad I only have to do once. The design calls for a central timber that the stairs can fix on to. BUT I wanted it to look good and so did Wendy. Therfore:. It worked a treat. Next I wanted an Acorn on the top to match the existing newels. None are available off the shelf so how to make one?

DIY loft conversion cost, trials, tribulations and triumphs. Tuesday, October 14, 2008. Note to get off my arse. I need to go and see the man about turning the spindles. He can be getting on with these as I'm working on the windows. It's always a stumbling block for me, when I have to use others help. Now there's a thought the spindle turning will cost me about £150.

DIY loft conversion cost, trials, tribulations and triumphs. Tuesday, September 6, 2011. Finally finishing off the Landing Ceiling. It has been a few years now and it's about time I finally finished the last few bits. The last major job was to take down the old, damages lathe and plaster ceiling on the landing. So I can fit the sun tunnel and fire alarm on to new plasterboard. It's quite a quick job to rip down but the clearing up and cleaning up after wards is a huge task. Posted by Andy Bell. January 7...
