We also used pre-primed MDF (huge timesaver!), but used 1x2 vertical boards instead of the larger size. At the bottom, we just butted the boards up to the existing baseboard, even though they stick out an extra 1/2". It looks fine, but as a warning, we can no longer vaccum along the wall, as the boards stick out just far enough for the vaccum to hit them. Problem is solved by just vaccuming towards the wall, but this is defintely something to keep in mind if you are looking at board and batten and trying to figure out whether or not to replace base boards!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10249902767652810851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-56690766324775869342011-03-26T20:40:02.420-04:002011-03-26T20:40:02.420-04:00Came across your blog and enjoying very much!
