Outer corner with plaster

[MMR]

I've used a couple of outer corners recently with Biltema's aluminum angles, 9.90.- for 2.5 m (http://www.biltema.se/products/product.asp?iItemId=156462). Worked well, very thin so you have to be careful when handling them, also available in plastic, a bit easier to handle but adds a bit more thickness.

And the fastening tool, which costs just over a thousand kronor. It is applied with the angles on the corner and then you tap with a hammer on the rubber pad, whereupon the two carbide pins retract and force metal tabs into the drywall:

Haha.. thanks! Found one of those in the garage (bought an estate from a retired carpenter) and have been wondering for two years what kind of tool it is... but now I know! Great!

I bought corners from byggmax for about 25 bucks for 2 meters, these were attached with staples and had a good edge to spackle against, so the staples don't stick up when spackling. I thought it worked great and didn't require any tool for 1k.

Until some kid crashes into the corner with any toy and the whole thing falls apart.
Staples feel pretty weak.

I have stripped and filled in 2 corners this past week, a 90 and 45-degree.
The 45 runs from floor to ceiling.
The 90-corner is on top of a stair enclosure (so hopefully no toys will hit there)
