    Can I ask if the board needs to be fitted on a slight angle running forward?? My son is on site learning at moment.. and the site manager has made him refit it as it was level.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to post. I’m doing my own window sills at home but I’m struggling to find a router but for the bullnose. You couldn’t help point me in the right direction please?

    Are your walls drywall or mdf?

    Are you not using any cavity closers? Isn’t the moisture from between the walls going to get through the MDF board?

    Nice video but I personally prefer to fix the board with brackets or foam.
    Dont have the risk of screw holes showing through the painted finish then.

    I’ve just had a new window board fitted to a bay window. It’s not level, runs out by 9mm so the vertical blinds are catching the board at one end. Mentioned this to the joiner who said there’s nothing he can do about it now

    pretty sure you'd fail NVQ if you have no dust extraction or safety..mdf is nasty stuff. otherwise good stuff

      I would rather fills a few holes in mdf than have the board lift off.
