Calculate the amount of spindles needed for a section of rail.
Works for any type of railing where the spacing of the spindles, pickets or pales needs to be identical.
Spindle Count
The Calculation
enter the length of the rail section (in feet, inches and fractions of an inch as needed)
the spindle, picket or pale width (in inches plus fraction of an inch)
the maximum desired space in between the spindles, pales or pickets (in inches plus fraction of an inch)
Results
the number spindles, pickets or pales needed
the spacing of the spindles, pickets or pales ( due to forcing to a usable fraction it could need a slight adjustment)
