• Cutting the miter bevel past 45 degrees to 46 degrees creates a tight outside corner with a hidden inside gap.
• Using a table saw for length cuts provides better control and a better cut than a track saw.
• Filament packing tape provides stronger reinforcement and flexibility than traditional packing tape when gluing miter folds.
• Higher LED density per meter provides a truer white light compared to lower density blue-tinged LED strips.
