After removal of insulation is before installation of insulation.
I measured all the rectangles, put them into a nice table, and wondered
how best to puzzle them onto the 8x4s, when I thought, why not let the
computer do it.
A quick search revealed GoNest a free to try program for just that purpose.
Added the size of the sheets, the size of the rectangles, and how many I
needed, clicked the magic wand, and the program told me, I need 5 sheets
and showed me, how to cut them.
I went ahead, marked all five sheets yesterday, and this morning, I went
ahead with a Bernzomatic 6-in-1 hot knife and cut the stuff. Took me a
total of two hours, and apart from me feeling like being on LSD cause of
all the fumes, everything else looks nice.
I first wanted to get the Dremel VersaTip, but that wasn't available
locally, which makes me answer my month old question: Order online or
buy local, with a very definite: If you are located in the middle of
nowhere (like Farmville, VA), order everything online. You'll be much
better off.
