What started out as 'stripping a little paint from the bannister' eventually turned into a full understairs MDF storage solution, reinstatement of original spindle pattern in Douglas fir, full skim coat, new radiator etc. The paint is just about done (a farrow and ball colour "Oxford Stone" mixed by Dulux). Just the installation of the radiator, sanding of the floors and stairs and the lights to go back on.
Thanks for all the excellent advice from this thread over the years.
The definition of scope creep here.
Here's how it started after removing the lining paper. Ceiling falling down etc.
Pic with most work done.
