architrave

firsly i started by placing on my ppe boots gloves and goggles, i then began getting all the equipment i would be using mitre saw pencil spirit level and architrave. i then began marking out 10mm from the door so i know where the architrave will be placed after cutting, i then started marking out on the architrave the sizes that would be needed to fit in place before cutting. after checking to see they fitted together i fixed them togetherwith nail to hold it inplace i then made sure it was level before moving on.

ready to be miscoated

after finishing the dado rail and skirting, on monday it will be checked and see if im ready to start on the miscoat which will show anymore inperfections in the plaster which im sure there will be a few. if there is any i will sand them down or using more filler to fill any gaps as you can see in the picture there is some gaps in the skirting but i can use filler to fill in the  gaps at the back. After the miscoat there will be a overcoat and gloss after that with only 14 days left soo not long left.

dado rails

firstly i started by putting on my ppe boots goggles and gloves to protect myself from dust and sharp items, then i started by getting 2 long pieces of dado rails, then using the same method i marked out ther sizes that i would need soo they fit in place i cut a 45degree angle using a mitre saw then scribed in using a coping saw to fit neatly inplace i then mark the plaster at 1000mm/100cm soo i knew where the dado rail was going to be place i then got a spirit level making sure it was all level i nailed them in place

skirting board

first of all i started as usual by placing on my ppe boots gloves and googles, today i was going to place up my dado rails and skirting board, second thing was to get the equipment that i would be using : coping saw spirit level pencil etc.. i then marked out the size of skirting boards that i would need then cut them using a mitre saw i cut them at a 45degree angle then scribed them to fit inplace. i then nailed them into the plaster to hold them inplace.
