Photo: Mortise pattern.
These come out at 6mm square by 12mm long, or what will fit nicely into your mortises. You can then set up a 3mm radius roundover bit in the router table and rout the long edges of the spindles and the legs (photo 1).
Next, cut and joint stock for the top and bottom cleats (Dand E). All four cleats are chamfered on the ends of their best faces, using a mitre saw set to 45° (photo 2).
