Whern you all plaster chimney breasts that are shaped like a letter Y when you look at them from the front and are slightly curved on the reveals, do you use plastic flexible beads or cut a bead in two and follow the y shape???

hope this makes sense:RpS_thumbup:
 
I suppose it depends how sharp the angle is mate - like how much gear are ya gonna need to build it out to form a curved feature.........?
 
if its only slightly curved why not just dab some board on the lower part and plumb it back up again? just trying to get my head round the construction of it... only gonna have one flue, going in one direction so im guessing its been built like a bag of sh't?
 
So it's were the flue's of front and middle rooms come together in the loft. dub it out first get it looking something like then fix beads render and skim. Plastic beads have a little more giv then galv beads.
