The installation of our architraves was to a timber framed window in a timber framed wall. After we put our 130x12mm pine lining boards on our wall, next came the step of fashioning up a bull nose for our window.
To do this we had some ripped 90x35 in which we clamped to a table for a solid fix. Then we prepared a router to form the nose on our timber. We were required to wear full p.p.e when we were in the room using any power tools.
After we had made our bull nose and screwed it to our sill, we were ready to arc it. I started off my arcs by sitting them flat on the nose so they were hard down, and then transfered the mark from my querk to my arc and cut it on a 45degree angle. I placed both of the side arcs on then measured the distance accross from outside to outside of arc and cut a piece to suit inbetween.
once you have your arcs on give the mitres a sand to ensure all imperfections are picked up and fixed.
