cutting beading for wooden floors

[milly123]

Hi,

I have to put beading down on laminate floors - any tips for cutting it at an angle i.e. at corners I've never done anything like this before so i'm hoping its as easy as it looks.

Any suggestions appreciated

Hi milly,

My hubby found this particular part of the job very hard. Our resident expert Carpenter explains how to cut skirting boards here and whilst its not about beading it might help. What I know about it could go on the back of a postage stamp!

For a simple quadrant bead you could simply mitre the joint, which is easily done on a mitre saw (powered) or using a cheap saw and mitre box. But for a professional finish you should really scribe the joint which is straightforward enough with a simple moulding like this.

Thanks very much for the advice.
