    Stair bump out

    How do I get the upper portion of the stairs and winder to bump into the inside of the wall? In the stair dbx I have winders checked and contraction set to 7". The first run of stairs to the winders and two sides of the winder contracted, but not the third side or the second section of stairs. Thanks to all.

    Do you have your stairs dimensioned such that it will fit between the walls as desired? When you build your stairs I would keep everything that will go in "later" out of your stairs area until you get your stairs set up and winding just the way you want .... then add the other walls as needed, cabinets, fixtures, etc. Maybe you already did that but without knowing more about what dimensions you need, etc. it is hard to tell.

    I played around with the walls some more with moving them away from the stairs and then back in to the dimenisions I want the walls to be. As shown in the attachments I was able to get the section of stairs above the winders to move in, but the winder on one side still protrudes through the wall. I moved the walls in and out several times, but to no avail.

    I don't know why, but I saved the plan, closed CA, then opened it back up, brought up that plan, erased the stairs and wall entirely from that area and rebuilt it. Everything came out just like it was supposed too! I don't know what I did differently the first time---maybe CA just needed a coffee break from me. Thanks for your input.
