Default Cutting skirting mitres

Think about it. if you have a normal room with four internal corners how
will you get the last piece(s) in with mitres?


A normal room would have a doorway, so you would do the three non
doorway walls first, then two sections of skirting, each from corner
to door. The door ends would not be mitred. Probably.


Slide it down from the top? Normal size room might take more than one
length anyway.


A piece of typical modern skirting of, say, 2 or 3 metres in length, has
enough flexibility to bend it and allow it to straighten out into place.
Not always true of chunky Victorian type skirting!
