Inspect and Finish

What happens here

Once all the screws are driven, inspect the finished corner. The joint should be tight and flush, with no gaps along the mitered seam. The pocket holes provide hidden fastening from the back or underside of the piece, resulting in a clean, finished appearance on the exposed surface. This completed corner piece is now ready for installation as part of a decking or trim project.

Goal: Verify the quality of the mitered corner joint
