Cardboard Stands Save Effort

Cardboard Stands Save Effort

It’s tough to hold long pieces of quarter round molding for priming and painting, but recently I had 300 ft. of it to prepare for our new home. So, I used cardboard from our moving boxes to make four of these triangular stands, taped together, with V-notches cut along the top. The notches were shallow enough to hold the molding’s curved edge “proud” for easy finishing.
