Interior Trim: Making, Installing & Finishing

by William P. Spence

With a little do-it-yourself magic—and the help of master DIY author William Spence—you can make a big difference in the look of your house. Window and door casings, baseboards, chair rails and wainscoting, cornices, mantels and other interior trims can change a room’s character, insert period detail, create a focal point, and add warmth. The author gives plenty of guidance on choosing wood; hand and power tools; and stock and custom moldings made from plastic, fiberboard, and other materials. Proper safety procedures are emphasized throughout, and plenty of expert tricks of the trade go a long way toward ensuring success.
