THERE should be more information on how to do the corners with the 1x6s !! inner and outer corners!!
TIP: ly two short 2x4s on end and you ll get a very near perfect height for the bottom rail at 9inches above the floor
ARE YOU SURE THE TOP CAP MOLDING IS 1/2 X 2 " ??? I CANT FIND ANY AT THE MAIN LUMBER STORES

Is there any way to do this wainscoting without having to remove all the window and door trim?
