I believe your information is incorrect. The Professional seller's plan monthly fee of £25 is waived for Handmade sellers. The only fee payable by the seller is the referral fee which, until December 31, is 12% of the amount the buyer pays for your product. Quite reasonable in my view as you...

Defeat conceded. I simply don't possess the requisite skills to complete this detail to a quality I would deem satisfactory even for myself. Oh well, nothing ventured and all that. I shall stick to the butt joint as advised. Thanks again for all the input particularly from Sgian Dubh.

@Sgian Dubh - Thanks for taking the time to set out such detailed instructions. I'm tied up for the rest of the afternoon delivering PPE to health workers but will digest later. @Doug71 - Yep, quoting the obvious, but sometimes the obvious isn't that obvious to some so definitely worth stating. :)

My intention is to pencil round finish the board edges by hand. Although, as you say, the mason's mitre is overcomplicating matters it would make for a more intersting detail and it's something I've never done before so I'm inclined to take you up on your offer thank you very much. Ready to...

I wasn't dismissing or ignoring your advice, I was dissuaded from attempting a mason's mitre by hand due to finding many instances on several forums stating how difficult it was to achieve an acceptable joint. The "wiggle room" was just a little insurance in case I had to re-cut/trim the mitre...

Thanks to all for the great input. I've just ordered 2*1m lengths (oversize) of 20mm pineboard from my local supplier. They're ripping each down to width from 220mm stock at £4.45/m. My carer (ahem @Woody2Shoes) is letting me out alone to pick them up in 10 mins. I'll look at the mason's mitre...

Yes, the groove is at the bottom of the frame so pre-made window board with tongue isn't an option. Anyway I prefer to do the rounding over as I can get it how I like it. After taking account of yours and others' comments I'm inclined to agree and will go down this path as you suggest...

Morning folks After refurbishing my Iroko counter top last week I've decided to get stuck into some other, long put-off, jobs and was hoping to get some tips/pointers on fitting a timber windowboard (never done before) in place of what was originally a tiled ledge. My (probably a bit dodgy)...
