Hi, all.

I'm adding a pantry to an existing kitchen, so I'm framing some
non-structural partition walls, and then drywalling them. Essentially,
I'll end up with a neo-angle pantry, and I'd like the door in the
angled wall.

When I got around to framing it in, I ran into a problem. I'm using
2x4s for the walls, but when I go to install the angled wall, the
angled cuts in my 2x4 plate end up being wider than the other two
walls.

You won't have any problem if you miter each plate (22.5 deg) where they
intersect. (assuming you have a 45 deg intersection). Easiest way to see
this is to draw some lines on the floor.

To anticipate your next post, yes you rip a 2x4 to make a solid outside
corner.
