Wooden Stair Spindle

Check local building code.
If allowable gap between spindle is 100mm then following guideline will help you.

for horizontal guard rail spacing of 4.2 inch is appropriate using 1-5/16" spindles.
4.2-1.2 = 3 Inch (75mm) clear space ( 1-5/16" spindles measures 1.2 inches after sanding)

For inclined stair railing spindle spacing of 6 inch (inclined length) is appropriate using 1-5/16" spindles.
6 x 0.7 - 1.2 = 3 inch (75mm) clear space ( 0.7 is for 45 degree stair angle).
