Broken Stair Hand Rail Spindle
I have a spindle broken on one of the handrails for a staircase. The house was built in the early 80s. I have been to all the home centers and some of the local lumber yards in search of anything which matches even close.
Any ideas on were I could find a matching spindle?
Thanks

Post your photo on a sharing website such as Photobucket and give us the address.
You may want to Google "millwork" to find a replacement. Good luck with your project.

Spindle
Your photos worked. I can see them. Thanks.
I Googled "stair parts" and found several sites. A few are listed below. Many others are displayed on Google.

If you cannot find what you need, perhaps you may want to consider taking your broken spindle to a woodworking shop and have a copy made on a wood lathe.
Good luck on your search.

Thank you Ken. Your help is much appreciated. It appears, as I thought, I will either have to have it made, fix the existing one the best I can or install an all new rail.
Again thanks to all who posted on this thread.
