Thanks for the Video. I have watched it 4 times and I still cant get it right!!! I was wondering if you could come to my home to film a new video ?? I have plenty of Crown, including several that I precut backwards so you can show everyone what NOT to do!!!!

Thanks! You should watch my other Crown Molding videos. They show you exactly what is happening at the saw.

Nice video, but I think it would have helpful to show more of the actual saw cutting the molding. Are you angeling the table, or are you angeling the blade?

Thank you! Your "how-to" videos on cutting Crown Molding were so helpful!! We are remodeling our home and wanted to add the molding but didn't really know how to get those "cuts" just right. Thanks to your videos on this subject, my boyfriend is happily "cutting" away and making great progress!! Consider us "fans"!!

I can't tell you as the miter method I use produces tight joints in less time. To produce an accurate coping-cut line, you have to cut it the way I show. So why cope if you already have the perfect fit?

Nice Tim and Thanks for posting the helpful hints.(we're watching) But... when would the coping saw method work the best and why do so many people do it that way instead... I think this way is easier also..?

You have an informative series I will admit.Yeah I should do the same only I end up using so many different profiles. I was referring to the way in which you cut the crown itself on the miter saw. I use a 12" dual slide compound miter saw (Makita). I always lay my crown flat on the table of the saw itself. I I am a Florida licensed General Contractor specializing in commercial work. By trade I am a finish carpenter though.

Thanks for the comment! That is what I do....., the test pieces that is. Test pieces are demonstrated in a few of my other videos. I have several buckets full of test pieces in all different sizes/profiles/angles.

airborneSGT (August 22nd, 2007 @ 4:59 pm)

Why not just cut your test pieces to determine your angle and bevel? I always cut my crown upside down on my saw and set my angle and bevel based on what I am using. I install a lot of larger profiles so its the only way I know. The larger profiles simply wont sit on the fence properly.
