About Installing Casing And Baseboard, Programs 3 & 4

Product Description Casing and Baseboard form the foundation for much of the joinery in finish carpentry. Using a range of tools and techniques, these two programs focus on fundamental and advanced techniques for creating tight and durable joinery, emphasizing accuracy, efficiency, safety, and success. Topics in these two programs range from: · Casing simple picture-framed windows · Traditional stool-and-apron · Built-up classically-inspired door heads · Scribing casing to wickedly bowed walls · Reinforcing miters with biscuits, splines, and the latest clamps In Mastering the Miter Saw, Programs 1 & 2, viewers learned essential techniques for cutting casing and baseboard precisely. Follow the natural progression to Installing Casing And Baseboard, Programs 3 & 4: Learn how to make a cutlist, cope inside corners with a Collins Coping Foot, pre-assemble bullnose corners, and more. Slide shows and articles cover a range of additional topics, like making a zero-clearance fixture for your miter saw, using a table saw safely, and even more tips on coping small and large profiles. Review I learned more about measuring and cutting casing and crown than I did in 22 years of building homes. -- Mike Guertin, Contributing Editor, Fine Homebuilding I m impressed with the material...the ability for the typical lay person to be taught in a very non-threatening fashion. -- Brian G. Johns, Orange, CA Katz's "anyone can do this" attitude draws crowds at trade shows an appropriate choice for his debut DVD! -- Brian Pontolilo, Fine Homebuilding Thank you for the educational experience that would have taken me years to acquire. -- Doug Ridgway, Saskatchewan, Canada With this combination of video, slideshows, and articles, the learning curve is almost flat. -- Craig Savage, author of Trim Carpentry From the Contributor Like many carpenters, I learned my trade the hard way, by trial and error. Mostly error. I'm committed to making finish carpentry an experience that's enjoyable for people of all skill levels, and profitable for professionals, without the misery of lost wages, wasted material, or failed projects. Casing and baseboard seem like simple projects but they aren't! I've seen carpenters spend months learning how to install these moldings. And it isn't necessary. Learning trim carpentry can be and should be fun. These DVD presentations represent the very best of my "Sawdust Seminars," offered to thousands of trade-show attendees around the country. They will make a real difference in viewers' work, increasing accuracy, efficiency, quality, and productivity-whether on the job-site or in a DIY project.
