Turret stair
Hi,
I need to re-create the stair as shown in the attached image.
What looks like a solid wall at the inside is actually only below the stair.
I've manually pulled straight stair sections at the portions that I could.
At the 45's, I manually drew landings and adjusted them to the adjacent
walls & stairs. The stairs and landings generated well enough, but my rail
looks awful. Is there an easy way to get my stair/landing rails to
correctly connect and transition in a single beautiful arc?

I would use an inside radius for that stair which would give you uniform tread spacing and solve your railing problem. Tread widths should be uniform along the travel line for a comfortable and safe (safer) stair.

Thank you kind sir.
Although not as exactly as prior, your safety comment makes sense
...., not to mention a beautiful rail.
pic attached.
