Did a Google search for "woodturning balusters". Got 792 hits, not too bad.
Mostly commercial "buy our balusters" sites, but some are interesting:
Since Dick has lots of pics to study, I hope he won't mind my imposing an OT muse on his thread.
Funny how a local community's provincial use of words stays with you all your life. I started to suggest that Dick just drive down the street and look at porch railings, but something made me look it up first.
Until today I had thought balusters were for inside stairs and bannisters were for outside porch rails ....wrong! I found out there's no real difference. My concepts about davenports & sofas, settees & chesterfields were also off the mark. I have missed the target with many others. Any of you ever been taken aback on finding a long and firmly held concept was wrong? What were you mistaken about? Purists can limit their errors of conception to woodturning if OT is too painful. :)

OT, but in response, my daughter was taken aback when she found out that "wind chill" was not the front glass on the car! {:-)
