How to Cut and Scribe an Internal Corner on Skirting Boards

In this video I show you how to get the perfect skirting board joint on an internal corner. Not all internal corners are smack on 90 degrees, so by creating a scribe joint for your skirting or baseboard, you can achieve a perfect join every time.

I last scribed a skirting 17 years ago and needed a refresher - this was perfect! Thanks.

Thank u M8. Tackling this today with 1 grumpy wife to appease. Wish me luck

Saw it done years ago forgot how, thank you, you're a legend.

Would be great if you positioned the camera so we could actually see the coping saw going through the moulded part of the skirting. Might be a tricky positioning the camera, but well worth it because nobody on YouTube has positioned the camera that close up as of yet.

Nice simple explanation of a very useful procedure.

Do you always scribe the skirting board on the right hand side?

[haroon]

Kind of helpful but when it came to showing the angle, you camera light was so bright, I couldn’t get a sense of the angle.

Best description I've found, this 70 year old female is going to use this to fit picture rail. Thank you

what a fucking scribe mate, looks amazing!

[nattytempest]

Well that was enlightening! Thank you for the video, this was very helpful!

There’s not such thing a an internal mitre. Carpentry rule number 1. The whole purpose for the scribe is to eliminate shrinkage. If you mitre the internal I don’t care how square your wall is, over time this will open up and look like crap. Same applies to crown mounding don’t internal mitre it.

Bravo — with hand tools. Excellent content.

[roidavis]

Thank you Justin, for making it clear and simple!! Good job man.

[RosiE-gd]

yes, great demonstration of a really useful technique...except that you have to be able to cut a 45 degree angle and my mitre cutting kit isn't deep enough for my skirting. I'll have to work out how to adapt the technique.

Classic Lambs Tongue 😍 I’m fitting some of this today! Great video 👍🏼

[neiljones]

Wtf using a hacksaw should be using the coping saw all day long

[beermonster]

Awww mate this is genius. I was wondering how the hell I was going to accomplish this in my first house and first time fitting skirting. This is fantastic! Thank you very much :)

[MrJokerh]
