Hello!
I'm in the process of redoing the staircase with stainless steel pipes and am considering a handrail in OAK.
The length is about 4100mm...
I was thinking of a size of about 34*60-70 mm with the long side facing up?
It's difficult, it has to feel good in the hand and look nice at the same time...
And where do I buy such a piece??

There is planed oak available for purchase, to my knowledge not exactly in the dimensions you are asking for. There is 15x70mm for example, which you could glue together 2 pieces to make a 30x70mm, which is relatively close to what you are looking for.
I'm a bit in the thinking stage about making such a wooden railing myself, what type of pipes are you using and how do you attach them to the wood?

Hello. I have created a drilling jig that drills vertically in my stringer.
But I'm wondering if it might be better to mount a piece over the stringer and attach the pipes to it instead?
The pipes are from Ikea's Grundtal shelf, they cost about 30 bucks each.
I've checked around locally, and a piece that is 34x70 x4100 would cost around 1500.
I'm considering regular pine instead at first and painting it white.
Feels like 34 wide is almost too narrow?

Since it is screwed in very tightly (I assume), it will probably be fine, otherwise there is a big risk that it will warp.
Then you'll probably need to sand and knot-seal properly if you're going to use one like that.

Is it this shelf from which you source the pipes?jkarlberg said:
My wife wants to replace the stair railing at home with something similar, but I have argued against it just because stainless steel costs a fortune. If these can be used, it would be really affordable in price.
Please post some pictures of how you have done it so the rest of us can get even more inspired.
The link does not work, but it's from the base shelf which has 6 pins.
For the stairs, we will use the 80cm pipes which are half the price of the 120mm pipes.
I believe the 80 pipes cost 15:- each, we need about 30 pipes so it will be cheap.
Will upload pictures when something happens, will sand and paint the stairs first.
