Have a request to try to fix a loose stairway spindle. I can feel where it's broken. Was this built in two pieces or previously repaired? I can feel that the lower piece must have a dowel up inside the upper piece (or the other way around). I can wiggle the upper and lower pieces around and feel that. My only idea is to drill small hole through lower piece and into that inner dowel and glue/pin with another dowel (1/8"). Sand and try to finish to match. My rough sketch below. -Scott
