: Well, I'm about ready to place the first strips, the sheer strips,
: and have a question ....
: My strips are all bead-n-cove. It seems to be a good idea to have
: cove up, for holding the glue as I go.
: However, I've been reading and most advice says the first strip
: should be flat at the sheer line.
: Is this that important? Should I plane the bead off the strip so
: the edge is flat?
: I was thinking it would be no big deal to leave it as a bead.

: Thoughts out there??

Also you really don't want that much glue on the strips, will make a horrible mess with glue running all over the place if you fill the cove. Will make clean-up a bit overly time consuming.
