More Buena Vista Handrails

On the back steps at the Buena Vista house, there were some “historic” handrails which had been put up by the house’s former occupant, a descendent of Bernard Maybeck. They were falling apart though, as they were basically branches of acacia nailed into rotten 2×4’s. We replaced the whole set-up, keeping the rustic feel by using nicely sanded and oiled local branches, held to sturdy posts by bands of copper. I love the way it looks.
