Measure and Cut New Casing Pieces

lesson the hard way now when it comes to actually installing the trim or the window casing as the call it for the sides of the casing I'm using a 1x4 MDF and then for the top and bottom or the head and apron I'm using a 1x6 same stuff MDF one rule of thumb don't forget when installing the head in apron make sure when you create the length cut you use a roundover bit to match the entire round over part of that trim piece so it looks nice and then when it comes to actually installing it you have to use a brad nailer you can get away with anything between a 16 and an 18 gauge you can use a battery powered one like I'm using or a Pneumatic compressor one
