The bed is now finished and the panels for the kitchen units have been cut.
Marking out and cutting the hole for the sink was a challenge that required blending three different curves. There was lots of checking before I unleashed the jig saw but the result was close to perfection with just a couple of millimeters of clearance all round.
Edging the panels required cutting a 2mm slot exactly in middle of the edge all the way around. Clearly there is no way that this can be done with hand tools and trips to B&Q and Screwfix didn't help. It took some tracking down but eventually Axminster tool centre came up trumps with this slotting bit for my router.
Having cut the slot all I had to do was whack the trim in place with my rubber mallet.
Taking the trouble to find the right tool for the job was well worth it as finish looks very professional.
