Re: Cab corners

Spent two hours getting it to fit, and like 10 min to tack it in. I bent a small screw driver over to make a right angle and sharpened the end. I reached in and marked the corner. Cut it well above the line and slowly cut it down to fit. Cut off wheel isn't the greatest but it worked pretty good. The new corner had to be adjusted a bit to fit the bottom door curve. Kinda through me off a bit but I made sure to do it slowly. Walked away a couple of times, did a little more, then another break. The last thing I wanted was to get upset and make a tiny stupid mistake.


I did use a 1/2 backing strip... primer, paint, tape, clamps, and blocks of wood lol all to hold it just right while I tacked it.

I'll smooth it, tack it, smooth it and so on until it is done. I'll post back with my progress. I also used the tap tap technique.. it helps.
