I’m adding an ‘advice wanted’ tag to the blog for projects and peculiarities I’d like to try and crowdsource. If you’re looking for a puzzle, these would be the posts that need addressing.
Right now the main point to ponder is at the bottom of this post – how do I get the paint off these spindles so I can repaint everything?

I bought a 110-year-old house with some nice architectural accents, many needed cosmetic upgrades, updated plumbing, partly updated electrical, and dreams of fixing things up whilst whistling jauntily on the bright days of summer.
Needless to say I underestimated everything.
This blog is a chronicle (of sorts - I'm notoriously bad at keeping up with things like this over long stretches) of the relationship between me, my house, my tools, and the wealth of knowledge on houses that can be obtained from friends, relatives, and the local library. Projects and problems, and problems with projects, will be described. Options will be discussed. Progress may even be made.
As of this moment, the house is still standing.
