Why not ceiling moldings?

In this case, because they haven't gone up yet (we haven't had time to put them up) yet!

What a damn boring attitude to have.

Crown molding in a turn-of-the-century house is indeed beautiful but otherwise, I would probably agree with him.

About crown molding being for people who can't build?
Strange to agree with that.

It's rather the opposite; it takes much more building skill to scribe coving than to screw drywall...

Remarkable that we managed to build an entire garage with an apartment and an entire house, pretty much all by ourselves, without knowing how to build then.

Creating a nice transition between träullit and the wall was certainly not easy, and after considering how much time to spend on it as well as testing a few different options, we concluded that a simple molding would be by far the easiest and nicest way.

How would you have done it?

I don't think it's finished until the floor and ceiling moldings are nailed.

I don't think it's finished until you've nailed the floor and ceiling moldings.

I also think there should be a floor before a house is complete.

You can skip the floor as long as the molding is there.

No. But people who work rationally.
