Hi all,

I've recently had a go at fixing plasterboard over an exposed brick feature wall - my first attempt at anything plaster related. So far it has gone quite well (thanks largely to the great info on this forum and how2plaster.com), however I'm now at the stage of replacing the length of cornice that I destroyed and need more guidance!

As you can see in the attachment, the feature wall has one ajoining internal and one external angle. To fix the plasterboard I roughly hacked the old cornice off at 45degree angles. Should I try and cut a new length of cornice to match the existing angles and attempt to patch up the joins, or should I cut the cornice on the ajoining walls (at say point A and B) and use a miter box to create 3 new pieces?

Seems as though the second option would produce the better result, butgiven I have zero experience I may be overlooking something! :;
