101 in 1001-- Item # 69-- Fix the Wobbly Banister


Why I Chose This Goal: Since we moved in the banister post has been a little wobbly. It hasn't gotten any worse, but it never got any better. So just like George Bailey's banister in "It's A Wonderful Life" it just sort of nagged at me to fix it.

What I Did: I drilled one hole on each side of the post and anchored a long 3" wood screw into the sub floor and tada... a nice tight banister. Now I am off to the home depot to get some wood filler and stain to complete the task. Everyone was happy when I completed this one.
P.S. BMO put it through the paces and proclaimed "It's a lot sturdier than before". There you go-success!
