Installing a Mahogany Windowsill

Bob puts in a Mahogany windowsill that's been precut with a cleat and bevel to make the installation easier. He also helps install Poplar floor molding and observes as closet doors are added.

Clip Summary

A Mahogany windowsill has been precut with a cleat and bevel to make the installation easier. The sill is large enough to be a shelf, which is a nice characteristic of older construction.

Bob helps carpenter Abel Lopez of Two Trees Development install a piece of pre-primed Poplar molding to the floor edge with a butane-powered finish nailer and a wood adhesive. To aid in the construction timeline, many trim pieces in this job are precut and pre-primed from the lumberyard.

In the closet, Lopez is adding sliding closet doors. They are easy to install and don't require the framing of a standard door, or the complex installation of a pocket door.
