Instructor

Gary Striegler – possibly the most ingenious trim carpenter around – shows how to step up your finish carpentry skills by mastering these two classic details.

Chair rail is a simple product that’s simple to install – IF you know Gary’s tricks. He'll show you how to

● Deal with bowed walls

● Beef up wimpy door and window casing

● Work around excess drywall mud in the corners

● Adjust for out-of-level floors.

Raised-panel wainscot creates an upscale feel in any room.

Using pocket hole joinery for the frames and a router table for the panels, Gary explains how to easily achieve that expensive look with standard materials and moldings.

Includes a Bonus Video with Gary's tips for using a power miter saw.
