3 way mitre..tutorial (hopefully)
Here I am going to attempt to guide you through a the cutting of a 3 way mitre.

picture 1 is of the 3 way mitre.

trim for the top of the mitre is laid flat in the mitre box as in pic 2, after you have cut the mitre you then stand the trim up and cut the mitre in half (the opposite way) as in pic 3, this will then give you a point as in pic 4
next you cut the piece the for the downward trim, you cut this in the opposite to the top piece, cut your mitre in the normal way with the trim standing up, then you lie it flat and cut it in half the opposite way as in pics 5 and 6.

hope this helps with some of the confusion...Mark.

Buy and use 3 way corner joints - around 20 pence from many good tile retailers. Saves time and looks much neater !!!! No mitering required.
Available in a selection of colours and sizes.
Or, for chrome use right angled box section trim instead of curved. No mitering required.

Unable to see the pictures and when clicked on get the following,
baht'at, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
Isn't this open to every one??

All I see are very small images - is there a zoom function I am missing?
I did this once and vowed never to do it again
I believe that you can buy the corners anyway

I don't like plastic trim anyway - nothing wrong with a nice tiled edge

I'd love to be able to see this images but I can't gain access. Any chance you could upload them anywhere else?
Thanks, Andy
