    are any of you guys good with the old needle and thread and could give us some advice,

    I got a couple of bullnoses cumming up in a few weeks that will need to be hand sewn, I have never done this so i have got
    myself some knitting kit and going to have a practice on my own at home 1st,

    From what i can gather im thinking you fully underlay the whole step taping all joints up, fit the step as much as possible
    then remove and sew the slit round the bend and copydex over for stability then fit back into place ????

    Thanks in advance

    Floorskills taught me. You kind of need to be shown but from what you are saying you should make it work.

    Its easy, when you know how.
    If you don`t know how, it`s going to be really hard. Is there no-one you know, who could show you how to do these ones ?

    Whats the carpet ?
