Stairs are stained and glued, awaiting polyurethane. It was a struggle for several months to figure out how to use the rounded spindles instead of the flat ones. I think the effort was worth the result so far. -

Has anyone just cut off the railings of a fairfield but left the stairs? I know it would be easy to replace the railings and it sounds more difficult to replace the stairs. I plan to cover those anyway. Are there not stairs going to the attic?

I've been toying with the idea of not installing my staircase permanently in my Orchid. I thought it would be much easier to change wallpaper later if I didn't. Has anyone used double sided tape or blue tack? I've got both. Or would it be better to use velcro? I have that too.

glued up stairs almost complete -
Hello! Recently I got a Beacon Hill off Craigslist that was never completed. Turns out it's in various stages of completed, unassembled, and falling apart. It'll be an interesting project that's for sure. My main question is the first level stairs. The house was assembled with hot gluer and has many places which have simply fallen apart, on the second level stairs about 4 treads are missing. I know one railing of the first level stairs is loose. Also the room has not been painted for anything, and honestly I just can't see the stairs well enough to know what state they are in. Could I use a heat gun to soften the glue (if needed) REMOVE the winding stairs, restore, paint, and reassemble as needed, plus go ahead and wall paper that room, and then put the stairs back? Or is that more of an undertaking than it is worth? I have the original instructions, but since I didn't build it myself I can't visualize how big of a problem it will be. I don't want half the house to collapse or come apart in the process. If it is really just to hard to consider doing, then any other ideas of how to clean, repair, and finish that area of the house? Thanks for any input! Alicia
