Great job on explaining the installation process! If anyone's ever in need of some high-quality coving, feel free to reach out to us!
John that is exactly what ordinary people need to see from your great experience and showing the story piece of wood to use to mark wall and ceiling. It shows low budget people simple tricks to enhance their homes. Good man
I didn’t realise it was that simple thanks for sharing those great and easy to follow tips
You are welcome
Brilliantly explained John, I was losing the will to live before I watched this!
Glad to help Steve
Thank you so much. I've watched 20 videos before yours, and yours is by far the easiest to follow 😊
I'm glad it was useful
Will you do an update on the solar system please :) @@JohnMcGrathManInShed
John, the b and q coving .the more expensive one you can get is a better looking mould when painted. IT is lighter cheaper and stixks on easy with the solvent free yellow gripfill.and you get the same effect.only problem it comes in 2 metre lengths. Slightly angle grind the edges and butt them up to each other and fill with caulk.credit card the excess .let dry and sand with180 grit.no joints are seen .save you a fortune on moulded stuff
I've just extended my bathroom and ready to fit the scotia / coving to the ceiling, When I was on the tools many years ago it was coping saw and back cut. My scotia is made of plaster, but it is not a problem to cut it on my combination saw, we also can purchase it in MDF. or wood. What I would like to say to you John, if only I had school teacher's back in the fifties and sixties that had been half as good as you at explaining and teaching with a calm and pleasant manner, I would most probably have been an academic!!! Instead I only learnt how not to grimace when getting six of the best on each hand!!
Excellent video definitely well explained and helped me the most out of all the TH-cam videos…thanks
Glad it helped
Nice to see you back on TH-cam, great video very informative 👍
Thanks Tony
Brilliant explanation.
Thank you for a very good instructional video!
You are welcome!
Love to get an update video on the worksite table saw. Stood at the local shop staring at a Bosch, Dewalt, and a Metabo, for probably an hour. That wonky fence has me concerned, just getting into woodworking, done mostly metal work my life. I can be a bit overkill on precise measurement, wondering if it’s been a pain or it’s been ok? The dewalt seems to be the elite, but the price is to match. As a weekend woodworker that seems to be a bit silly, but if it’s precise, all the time. That goes a long way into my pockets. Glad I found your channel. Matthew from Calgary Canada 👍🏻
Many thanks you have made my life much easier
Happy to help
Awesome build my friend.. continued success to your channel
Thanks 👍
Excellent video, very informative! I highly recommend EPS plaster-coated coving for DIY jobs. It's moisture-resistant, budget-friendly, and adds tons of appeal. Homemerce specialises in DIY mouldings - they have durable yet lightweight coving in a range of styles, all meant for easy installation and a high-end finish at a low cost. For coving and trim, they offer the best quality and value.
John the Life Saver. I had been trying to cut them in the mitre box and they never lined up. But After i made the jig like yours on the mitre saw 👌 thanks ever so much 🫡
I'm glad to help
Great tutorial, very informative! EPS plaster-coated coving is perfect for DIY jobs - it's budget-friendly, moisture-resistant, and adds tons of style. Homemerce ltd is my go-to for coving and trim. They have a huge range, great quality, and unbeatable prices. Everything is designed for easy DIY installation and a custom, high-end finish.
Great video John some real good tips on how to use mitresaw properly
Cheers Gary
Top video nicely explained !
Great video, thank you
Hey John, really having problems with the job I am doing tomorrow - if the internal corner isnt 90 can you use the mitre protractor to get the mitre angle? And does this technique work only with this type of coving or all coving? Thanks 🙏
Great show John.
Thanks
You made that so simple!!! Thank you x im of to have a go 😅
Glad to help
very nice as always great video
Thanks
Great timing John, just about to cove our porch after a partial ceiling collapse!! It’s one of those jobs that is satisfying, but have to relearn every-time as not doing it often enough. Thanks for all your content.
Perfect timing! hope the video helps Alan.
What a great video, thanks.
Happy St Paddy’s Day
nice one John, some good tips sir
Glad you enjoyed it
Gread vid John, nice to see you back. How’d you get on with the PV solar panel installation? Love to see a follow up on how it worked out. Cheers
Will do Kieran
Hi John, great video. Im having trouble on some of my corners in a room where the corners are not 90 degrees. So I have been bisecting the angle, so the left/right cuts are equal (more or less than 45)
Is that the best method?
Hi! Thanks for great video. I have one question: what type of blade do you use for your mitre saw? I tried cutting with mine and it started melting the coving... Thanks.
What cornice for you use? Plastic if it is melting? Here in Australia or cornice is almost always plaster.
What is your cornice made of where you are from? Here in Australia it is almost always made of plaster. That cornice the way it cut on the saw looked like wood or plastic?
Hi John, are the set stops on the bosch using detents on the protractor? Have you had to adjust/correct the angles or does it hold well.
Also my wife has just asked what colour paint are the walls in the room getting the coving. 🙄
There are detents, I set it up once and haven't had to touch it since. You can tell your wife that my wife says its Teal. 😁
Excellent 🎉
Thank you! Cheers!
Assuming the corners are 90 or 270 degrees. Not back cut and cope?
Hi John that t 83mm does that only apply to that size coving cus I got smaller coving and 83mm didn't work. My coving is edge to edge 90mm.
83mm is only for the size I was using. Set yours up on the mitre saw like I have shown in the video and get an equal measurement on the base and on the fence of the saw
If your mitre saw doesn't have as tall a fence what do you suggest ?
You can make a fence from mdf or plywood
What are the boots you wair
I have never seen a product like this here in the US, very interesting that its foam, is that the norm over there in the UK? Here the standard would be made of wood or MDF, nailed into studs, then painted. Cool to see how things are done in other parts of the world.
Not the UK, Ireland
@@HughStLeger I thought I recall John saying he lived in the UK in previous videos, could be mistaken though. Meant no offense.
Hi Michael I'm in Ireland not the UK and don't worry being Irish I am un-offendable its like a super power lol .
Yes it is the norm in the British isles ( England ,Wales , Ireland and Scotland )
John. Where do you source your timber from. Walnut etc.
From McMahons hardwoods
What if it's not a 90° corner. Say it's a 45° ? Will that still work John?
it will, for a 45 degree corner just set the mitre saw to 22.5
@@JohnMcGrathManInShed thanks John. Enjoyed the video. Missing the weekly videos. I understand how work and life gets it the way.
