Hey everyone, ive only been using the boxes for 2 years and i was just wondering how you guys finish your bevel to butt joints. it just seems like what im doing the tape always shows. Also, i use the corner box and im having the same problem it seems like in some spots its fine but the tape still shows to much for my liking? any tips?

Tape butts first and bury the end in the bevels, then feather and float.
