What happens here
Transfer the measured dimensions onto a piece of composite decking material. Use a sharp pencil or a utility knife to mark the cut lines. For accuracy, utilize a speed square to ensure all lines are perfectly straight and square, especially where the trim needs to wrap around the post or meet another surface at a precise angle. This step often involves marking for both straight cuts and any notches required to fit the post.
Goal: Accurately mark the composite board for all necessary cuts.
