Cutting the second piece of trim went MUCH better with all the loose parts glued into place!
Hahaha kidding, no it didn’t.

It was only a little piece, & I had more glue! But WOW am I glad I’m done with the load-bearing parts of this.
ANYWAY that was only a brief delay & then it was back to sanding & painting.

I put the entire bottom piece of trim on before I remembered the screen needed to go first. Look, there’s just a lot going on right now, okay?

But that was pretty easy to do, & hey, the next bit went really easily! Because I’d already done it once!

Look at that thing, though. Just gotta do two more pieces of trim, & it’s gonna look GREAT.

I even got a start on the other two pieces! But I decided this time I was gonna glue things together BEFORE I took them apart with the saw.

I am capable of learning from my own mistakes!
