As a non-plasterer, could you lay the boards out face down on the floor and transfer the curve that way?

Do one wall at a time and lift/screw them into place as you go.

Shine a torch from inside the celing and trace the shadow. Your welcome.
 
Cut the profile of the curve with some cardboard maybe and then tranfer
 
But the board on the floor then use a laser pen along the ridge of the ceiling pointing down and with the aid of your man servant he,she marks the board,hey presto, do a small tester first.you can get the laser pens from the big pet shop chains,in the moggie section .
 
Take measurements from the wall to the curve at various points and transfer them to the board then draw it in free hand?

This. Wouldn’t even waste time and patience trying to get it bang on. Use this method and get it close. Scrim n fill gaps then skim quickly before anyone see how lazy i am
 
Correct answer!

Everyone elses answers are foookin stupid!!!

I thought it was a trick question !!
You know like when you go for a piss in the middle of the night in the dark and your desperate not to splash the floor....
Sneak off to work early then the phone rings around 7 ....
" Why the fuuck have you pissed all over the toilet floor" ??
Who me ??...must of been the kids !!!
Then you realise you have 3 daughters :rayos::rayos::rayos:

I pissed all over me front door once. Then took out me keys n walked in
 
I think a router with a guide point bit is fastest and most accurate way to go. It looks like you even have a nice piece of trim to catch the inside edge on. (Obviously you'll need some hat track up there for framing)
 
Joiner in. f**k f**k**g about with that pish.. Might be a dumb question but what is a top hat? I thought it was something a magician wore to make him look like a magician or a knob...
