I am finishing my basement and I made a goof. I framed out the side and underneath of my stairs with drywall, so when looking at the side of the steps you see a sloped drywall box. I was going to cap the top (by the steps) and then miter the spindles to rest on top of this cap. My SWMBO wanted it painted so I made it out of pine. Not my choice, but sometimes we do what they want... Anyway, I wanted to rout a 3/8 bead along the top and an 1/8 roundover on the bottom. Halfway through the second board (there's only two - left and right side of steps), I noticed that I was putting the beading on the bottom. Damn, I'll just bead both sides on both boards. It'll look fine, I thought. I placed them on the stairwell and I don't like it. My SWMBO says it looks fine and no way should I go buy two more 14' boards to redo it. Everytime I walk up those steps, I know that its not want I wanted. What do you think...Redo or keep it the way SWMBO suggests?
