Awesome stuff. So the base trim on the bottom looks like the 1x6. The top base trim looks shorter height wise, did you cut the top base to less than the 1x6? If so what height were they cut to? I’m referring to the column base you cut at 45 degrees and nailed over the long corner trim pieces. Thanks again. I’m inspired 👍🏼

I use the rule of 3rds. Top base is 2/3 the height as the top. Whatever height you use, try this rule. I always stand back and look after tacking on a couple pieces first. Best of luck with your project!
