DIY Cable Railing with Metal Posts Built from Scratch!
Learn how to make your own Cable Railing with Metal Posts using this detailed tutorial. This video will give you tips on how to save money and how to assemble a cable railing system, no matter how much of the project you choose to DIY. The posts are made of 2 inch square tubing that are cut to size. A metal plate is then welded on the top and bottom of the metal post. Holes are drilled for the cable, and a top rail is added. You'll learn many techniques needed to build a cable railing deck, whether it be using metal posts or wood posts.
