trainman0978 Posted April 8, 2009 Report Share Posted April 8, 2009 Leave the carpet in the edge of the port, just trim it up nice, and paint the inside of the port black....shoulda done that before the carpet got glued down. Tape up the carpet around the prot so it wont show the overspray....you mask it off like it needs to be to get paint only where you want it. And if you are gonna start building boxes and what not on the regular, invest in a finish nailer and a good set of 24 or 36 inch clamps.... glue up your edges good, clamp it down tight, and stick some trim nails in it , about a 1-1/2 or so inch nail. you will get a much smaller hole, and the nails will take the place of the clamps while the glue dries up good.... screws just offer up way too many chances for mistakes IMO... splitting wood, or predrilling holes, then all the wood filler and sanding.... you can fill the tiny little nail holes with a bit of putty on your finger and you may have to just graze over it with a bit of sandpaper by hand.... big timesaver, and much cleaner....
