We went pretty bold on this border! What do you think of this color combo?!

What happens here

As the border progresses, precise cuts are necessary for corners and any non-straight sections, such as curved edges. The worker is shown using a miter saw to cut a composite board to the required length and angle, ensuring a snug fit against adjacent boards. For curved sections, specialized techniques or pre-bent composite materials may be used, though the video primarily shows straight cuts for corners. Once cut, these custom-fitted border pieces are then secured to the deck framing using deck screws, maintaining the continuous and clean appearance of the perimeter design.

Goal: Prepare and install custom-cut composite border pieces.
