Note: For extra strength in your glue joints on fully painted
surfaces, mark where you will be gluing and scrape a spot
for the glue to grab inside the joint.

/
" from the edge of the floor (and lifted with pairs of shingles if
8
desired). Put glue on both ends of the Railing.
Put the Postbase in place so it touches the Railing and gets a dot
of glue from each rail.
Texture paint the back and right side of the Postbase but do not
texture paint where the glue dots are... the grit in the texture paint
will interfere with the rail's glue joint. (You are putting texture
paint in places that will be difficult to paint cleanly after assembly,
and you are not texture painting the left or front edges so you can
put the Handy Square and Porch Beam against the Postbase to
straighten it... you will paint those surfaces after the glue dries).
Glue the Postbase to the Foundation, Porch Floor, and Railing.
Straighten the Postbase with Handy Squares and the Porch Beam.
Check that the Railing is straight.
Repeat for the right Side Rail and Postbase.
Let the glue dry.
