Hi,
Just getting round to fitting the architrave on some door frames I've fitted. The door frames are a few mm wider than the wall I've built so the architrave does not sit flush.
If the gap was small enough I would just caulk it but I think that will look sloppy in this case so I reckon rebating the architrave would be the best option.
so, what is the best way to do it?
I do have a cheapo power planer but think I would struggle to get it right as I don't have a good bench to hold the architrave. Is this the kind of job a table saw would be good for?
not sure the correct name for the architave but it is a basic plain rounded edge type.
Any tips appreciated.
