Mod5 Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Will if you have a look here there is some discussion that may well help you already. Also if you use the Advanced Search function and type 'Baseboards' then limit the search to the Help and Advice section you will find plenty more. Hope that helps.

LBSC123 Posted December 28, 2009 Author Share Posted December 28, 2009 Right I've had a look on that thread and very useful it is but it doesn't really have any alternatives for 2x1 softwood bracing. Anyone got any Ideas? Cheers, Will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
