Soffit Corners



or why some projects just seem to take forever! We love the look of the corrugated galvalume as soffit material but weren't entirely sure how to shape it at the corners. BTW-there are 8 outside corners and 4 inside corners to be dealt with. So here are a couple of ways we tried -- first mitered w/channel spacing, then mitered and overlapped, and finally what we settled on which is no angles but straight cuts. the first two would have required custom cutting and fitting each corner, which are of course each slightly different. And there was no guarantee it was going to work very well on each corner. The straight cuts are quicker to assemble and hide flaws easier.
