Unless you have access to a good tablesaw,shop etc butt is just way easier, plus the wood is going to move alot and miters will show movement more than butt joints.
4x4 poch post trimming
Hello All....I'm having a new porch added on to our little cottage by the lake,and will be doing the trim work myself.Question to all is....Whats the proper way to cover a 4x4 post with cedar boards? Do I miter the corners or use a butt joint on the corners?or recess one side about 1/4"Thanks to all.Ray

I just finished mine. I butted the cedar boards and mitered the trim at the top and bottom.
