how to bend fascia corners

Bending fascia corners requires some careful attention to detail to ensure a clean, precise bend. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Measure the length of the fascia board that needs to be bent, and cut it to the appropriate size using a saw.

2. Place the fascia board on a flat surface, and mark the point where you want to make the bend. You can use a pencil or a marking tool to make the mark.

3. Using a circular saw or a jigsaw, make a series of shallow cuts along the marked line, making sure not to cut all the way through the board. These cuts will help the board bend more easily.

4. Once you have made the cuts, clamp the fascia board securely in a bending jig or a vice. This will help to hold the board in place while you make the bend.

5. Apply heat to the area where you want to make the bend using a heat gun. Be careful not to apply too much heat or hold the heat gun too close to the board, as this can cause the wood to burn or warp.

6. Slowly and carefully bend the board to the desired angle, using a pair of pliers or a bending tool if necessary. Hold the board in place until it cools and sets in its new shape.

7. Once the bend is complete, sand the edges of the fascia board to smooth out any rough or uneven spots.

Remember to always wear protective gear such as gloves and goggles when working with tools and equipment, and work slowly and carefully to ensure a safe and accurate result.
