[yrofot]

Nice vid, but I'd really love to see the bit that comes before, namely, the door lining.

What do you have to do if the frame is not exactly square? Also the left side leg of my arhitrave needs to be cut lengthways so it is only 3/4 width because tge frame sits against a return wall. How best to cut that myself? Ps i think he was just demonstrating a 'what if' scenario with jigsaw - ie no mitre block. 6mm is standard aesthetic choice and leaves jamb repair able if damaged by 6mm ply with i believe. But can be different depth anywhere from 4 to 10 mm and its less important than getti

@vaijones2002

best to use a power saw to rip down your architrave with a guide set to whatever width it needs to be

Why 6mm in from edge?
