What happens here

Begin by preparing the composite decking boards. Carry a long composite decking board, noting the pre-drilled pocket holes on one end. Use a DeWalt miter saw to cut the boards to the desired length and at a precise angle, likely a 45-degree miter for corner joints. Measure and mark the cut lines on the composite board using a tape measure and a pencil to ensure accuracy before cutting.

Goal: Prepare decking boards for mitered corners and correct lengths.
