Spiral stair in Hedge (Maclura pomifera, bodark, bois d’ark, osage orange).  Designed by my friend Cody to join a 100 year old barn basement to the floor above.  The barn, just outside of Fall River, got hit by a twister about 4-5 years ago and is now being rebuilt as a workshop and living quarters.  The stair isn’t officially finished, we already have a list of things we want to change, but this is it in it’s first state.
