  • I need to install some skirting board in my bathroom, and there's one corner where I'll need to cut the ends of the skirting to 45-ish degree angles so it matches up. But I don't have any power tools, and the skirting is too tall to use a hand saw cutting guide. Is there a nifty way of making this cut or do I need to borrow/invest in some kit?

    I don't really fancy buying something I'll use for basically one cut. If it comes to it I guess I could fudge it with filler...

  • External corner? If its just the one, patience with a preferably fine tooth handsaw, followed by sanding with a block?

  • Butt one side up to the wall, scribe the other side and cut with a coping saw/adjust with files - it's fiddly but easier to adjust than 45 degree angles on both sides (especially as your corner probably isn't exactly 90 degrees). Filler will solve the final fit!
