PART TWO: But how did the columns turn out?! Modern Mill is so versatile!

What happens here

Measure the required length for the column using a tape measure from the top of the structure to the base. Once measured, mark the assembled column section. Use a DeWalt miter saw to precisely cut the column to the final length, ensuring the cut is square and clean. This prepares the column for its final installation.

Goal: Trim the assembled column to the exact required length
