More finishing lines!

Today we tried to get through as much of the finishing lines as possible, although a few people were given the job to insert shelfing into cupboards or attach the vanity in the bathroom and ensuite.
Not much therefore learnt today as we kept on with things we had already had some exposure doing.  
One thing that I did pick up today, is doing the skirting for exposed corners within the interior of the house.  The way around this was to get a mock piece of skirting and to draw a faint line on the floor, where the skirting runs when held hard up against the wall sections that the corner will be fixed to (as it would sit if being fixed to the wall - usually on edge).  
This will give a cross section of where the mitre join should sit.  The length from the wall out to the edge of this marked out section is then taken and this is the length that the mitre cut is cut to.  The same step is repeated for the the other length of wall that the corner is present on.  Once attached, it will join up neatly together.
