S01E05 From Studs To Spindles

After a previous contractor left an 1890s Craftsman-style house in ruins, Tamara Day takes on the challenge of completing its renovation. She addresses significant structural issues and removes a load-bearing wall to expand the cramped kitchen. However, an exterior iron staircase complicates both the aesthetics and the renovation process. To restore the staircase to its former glory, Tamara heads to the wood shop to craft precise replicas of the missing spindles.
