In this staircase renovation episode, you'll see how a newel post is built on top of an existing newel post. This was an affordable way to upgrade the staircase for a more traditional look. The newel post makeover consists of:
2:27 - newel post sleeve
3:34 - newel post part overview
4:11- newel post cap
4:32 - cutting astragal moulding
5:34 - installing the astragal moulding
9:25 - installing the cove moulding on the base moulding

To review the Keys to Success for this project, see the segment starting at 10:58

This is a detailed DIY woodworking project that is both rewarding and less expensive than replacing the existing newel posts. See the playlist of all the videos in this staircase makeover project -    • Staircase Makeover
