Thanks, Bob. I stepped away from that project for a few days while I got my head wrapped around the plan of attack. The rectangles will all be a little different, but if we proceed with the formula, (and are consistent with our verbiage throughout) I think we will be able to get the 32 diagonals cut to size.... without too much waste. Brown glue and a 2"finish nail shot in diagonally is my thought. 2.25 trim screws mushroomed without countersinking each one, and wandered. So fit is crucial. Baluster stock is 1.375 mahogany.
