Now that your external angles are in position you can mix up your plaster for the base coat. Repeat this in multiple spots along the angle until it’s secure. Then place a nail through a circle on the outer edge of the external angle and hammer into the plasterboard. Add pressure with your hand to the opposite side of the angle to hold this into place. Hold the external angle up to the corner, using your straight edge to determine if the angle is straight. You can also pin the external angle into place using a hammer. 4 Attach the external angle with a hammer Once this is straight, staple the remainder of the angle into place. To check the angle is straight all the way down, place your straight edge alongside the angle, adding pressure. Position this firmly by placing pressure onto the middle of the angle, and pin into place with your staple gun.
Place the external angle against the straightest point of the corner, roughly in the centre. This way if there is any movement on the floor the angle will not crack. Position the external angle at least 10mm off the ground. 3 Attach the external angle using a staple gun Then gently squeeze the sides of the external angle together with your hands to account for any bends in the wall. 2 Cut the external angleįirst measure the height of the wall and cut the external angle to suit on a 45-degree angle. If there are gaps, you will need to adjust the external angle to make sure the wall is straight. Check if there are any gaps between the wall and the level. Grab your level and place it against the edge of the wall. #imagyprocker Awards 2019 September 15, 2019.2 x Layer 6ml Plasterboard September 18, 2019.Discovery Early Learning Centre Completed November 13, 2019.Plastering Snug Primary School Auditorium November 18, 2019.Snug Primary Auditorium Entrance Plastering Complete.Plastering Victorian Cornice Fingal April 1, 2020.Painting Plasterboard, What are the Standards?

Installing External Angles on Corners February 8, 2023.(I was still on the fence, but since Alex heads up our electrical projects I deferred to him on this front.) In three separate visits, we slowly worked to pry up individual boards to give us access to the wire and locations needed, all the while attempting to leave the finish of the floor as intact as possible. Ultimately we decided that pulling up a section of the floor (just like we'd done before) would be less invasive. And, we slowly accepted the fact that when we started the work in this room we'd have to either cut out a section of the ceiling to run a new wire, or we'd need to pull up our beautiful, original, and carefully refinished hardwood floors in the hallway and bedroom above to correct the ceiling light placement issue. Leading up to the start of this room's renovation we've had heated discussions. Honestly, there are few things that Alex does better than getting into his is own head and obsessing about projects, but I had confidence we could figure it out. Had we realized this issue back when we ran the new wire and box, Alex could have easily accounted for the eventual need to move it by leaving a little slack in the wire, but he hadn't, so he's been beating himself up about it, obsessing, and dreading the need to get back into the ceiling to run a new wire. We were absolutely kicking ourselves! Leaving it put meant either the chandelier wouldn't be centered over the table, or the table wouldn't be centered in the room if we chose to align it with the new light fixture. About a year and a half later, sometime in early 2017, we were standing in the kitchen daydreaming about what our plans for the dining room might be and we made the horrifying discovery that the new junction box.in the very same location as the old junction box.wasn't properly centered in the room! I'm not sure how we missed it (perhaps the fruit border served as a distraction), but we knew the current location wasn't something we could live with when we ultimately redid the space.
