Baseboards
What type of baseboard material is the most durable and easiest to work
with, assuming a width of 1/2"? TIA |
Baseboards
Depends on what tools you want to work with and the finish you want. If it
is to be painted, poplar is very popular, also known in some areas as tulip poplar or whitewood. Some people like cheap Asian mahogany or even finger jointed pine as well as MDF.

I'd like to use just the basic tools: a saw, a coping saw, a miter box,
a hammer and drill. I don't intend to use quarter-rounds either. The finish will be white paint. Thanks. |
