Hi All
Sorry to be asking for advice again, but I would rather ask a stupid question than make a stupid mistake!
I have a bay which has been plastered to a smooth curve, which I need to bend skirting board to fit. The bay is about 8' across and 3' deep, either side finishes nearly 90 to the back. In the rest of the property I have used MDF for the skirting but I can get the same profile in pine, the finish will be painted. The skirting is 3/8'' by 4 1/2'', I have thought of a few options outlined below but I am not really keen on any of them.
Option one, kerfing the back and or front. Option two, building the molding up in situ (not sure this would be practical though. Option three steaming a length to shape, I have only ever helped a friend repair boats with this technique and seem to recall it does not work so well with pine.
Any Insights would be gratefully received, I am leaning to option one at the moment.
Cheers,
Stuart
