I'm sitting in my living room staring at a huge pile of skirting that needs fitted in practically every room in the house. I have to thank you for putting this videos up. I was just about to start today and I'd have gone in with a totally different tactic! Your advice has saved me from making a complete arse of the entire job. I'm going to scribe my internal corners instead of angled cuts. It has all become clear now!! Cheers mate.

[@spendtimesavemoneydiy]

salmon ninja thanks for your comment and I hope all goes well with your skirting boards. Thanks for watching 👍🏼

[@adrianek12102008]

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.
