3.3 Cutting the Moulding

Measure the desired length for each piece of moulding. Use a miter saw or a fine-tooth saw to cut the urethane material. The material is designed to be easily cut without splintering. For corners, cut at appropriate angles (e.g., 45 degrees for 90-degree corners) to create seamless joints.
