Cutting Mitre corners on coving HELP !!!!!

[Paul_B]

Hi all,
Really need some help with cutting the mitre corners for my dental coving. I have tried everything 45 degree cuts, angled 45degree cuts but I am really having trouble getting them to go properly ending up with gaps galore. I have got a compound mitre saw which is making the job easier (or so I thought) !!!!! Did originally buy corners for it but they just do not look right so having to go down the mitre route, even though I didn't really want to !!!!

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Paul

remember few walls will be square and theres likely to be out on both angles

Easiest way is to use the plastic cove mitre guide from wickes. 2 quid works dead easy.

Thanks for all your help guys, managed to get it sorted. The farther in law came round and pointed out my error, I was laying the coving flat when cutting it and not cutting it at the angle it will go onto the wall. (school boy error I know but it was my 1st attempt)

Thanks again for all your assistance.
