The steps and stairs are done.
The top level of the steps started out as a box. The bottom portion are 1/4 in square rods stacked on top of each other (1, 2, then 3). Making the steps this way gives a 45 degree angle which is useful (see below).
The railing has to be scratched built. I use 60 x 60 and 40 x 60 strips. Since the angle is 45 degrees construction was relatively easy.
Next up is paint.
