    In all fairness you CAN angle cut your internal corners too, it will just not allow for much wall imperfections. If your walls are bang on 90 degrees I never had issues angling internal corners. With not so ideal walls, scribing the corner gives a bit of manoeuvre to join them more neatly. With angled cut you’d have to fill the gap with caulk and paint it to hide imperfections.

    Another suggestion to finding the angle:, Before you start any outside corners, cut some sample blocks with a 45, 45.5 and 46 degree angle. Use them to check your angle at each outside corner as you go. Much faster and fool proof.

    I’ve been fitting pine OG skirting boards to stain and varnish for years, this video will make external corners much quicker and easier. Previously I used to either use a cheap digital angle finder, (which is still a potch transferring to the mitre saw) adjust the cuts from 45 degrees on off cuts using the mitre saw until it was right and copy onto skirting or mark and trim away the plaster to make the boards fit then fill any gaps. This video makes the process so much easier and reduces the time spent by using a great formula. I’ll do a practice run on a known out of square wall above existing skirting in my place and I’ll be ready for the next skirting job. My method of joining on external pine skirting corners is to use 1 or 2 number 10 biscuits with a very small amount of pva glue thinned down in the biscuit pockets only so no glue oozing out into the joint and no gaps. It also permits a small amount of vertical movement to align, and doesn’t take long to grab. I will try mitre bond on pine, although I’ve only used it on beech and maple previously for flat trims to save using pins and filler then finishing. Thanks for the great video, so glad KZread recommended, it will definitely speed things up. I cannot believe 34 people disliked the video, it was perfectly presented........what’s up with them!

    Great video and technique for bisecting the outside corner and I will definitely give it a try when the opportunity arises. Another method that I have successfully used is to trace the angle from your sliding bevel onto a piece of stiff paper ( like a manilla folder ) next cut the angle out of the paper, then fold the angle portion of the paper in half. That's the angle you need.

    yep this bloke knows what he's doing - although it helps to have a fancy chop saw and a sliding bevel -- . Four corner rooms are easy but if you've got to go round an old chimney breast and do external mitres Id get a decent chippy to do it rather than pissing around for days on end bisecting angles, filing off 45 degree mitres than don't fit, cutting mitres the wrong way and generally getting REALLLY ANGRY.
