a thought about rounding corners inside boxes..

[snfsh79077 10+ year member]

one of those thoughts that just pops into your head but I have access to an abundance of scrap shoe mold at work. so I was wondering would putting the shoe mold in the corners initially be the same as 45s in corners? or since it would be somewhat of a bump in the corner would it have a slightly different affect?

no it probably won't i have numerous scraps of that also laying around, i will probably be using that for corner braces or fabbing up some coved 45's so there is a inside round edge...

it will work fine, and its scraps and you save money.

Around here it's usually called "quarter round".

Actually shoe molding is the proper term. Quarter round is just supposed to describe a perfect "quarter round" shape. People here call it all quarter round though.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif
