How to Install Wainscoting and Chair Rail
Learn how to cut miter and scarf joints to install wainscoting, chair rails, baseboards, and quarter round molding.
Make a pattern/template from one of the planks to use as a measure for the other planks you will cut. Mark the template with a piece of painter?s tape to clearly identify it, and then ensure that you always use it! If, instead, you use each successive plank to measure the next one, the tiny increments to the measurements will add up to noticeably different lengths. Using the template every time will insure consistency.
