Guys I have a question. Have any of you ever installed base board around a bull nose bead corner?
The standard 90 degree.... 45/45 mitre leaves a big hole hole at the joint.
How do you make a 3 piece joint to soften the transition. I'm kinda brain locked on this one.

The manufacturers who make the bullnose now also make parts which transition the corner smoothly from bullnose to square. Using this, the lower 6-10" of the corner is square -- to nicely handle baseboard --- and the rest is bullnose. It works very nicely.
For instance -- http://www.all-wall.com/acatalog/Pla...onversions.php, but there are others too.

My house has them as well and I located a local outfit that had pieces that were round and wrapped right around the corner. They were about a $1 each. If you looked at them they were U shaped and the molding would butt up to either side. Other wise it's time to pull out the lathe and get practicing
I can pay retail anywhere, so how's your service?

I made up 10 pieces with the inside flat at a tad over 3/4". They seem to work pretty nicely. A little caulk and a little paint should make my mitres what they aint
Appreciate the feedback guys!!!!!!
