is a way for you to add pizzazz and style to the rooms in your home. Most times, the molding rests between the top of walls and the ceiling. Because of this location, you may need to make various cuts to the molding, particularly at odd angles. These cuts can be somewhat difficult to make, especially if your crown molding is of a highly decorative design. You need to be careful and make well-marked cuts to ensure the molding will fit properly when installed.
Instructions
1. Check your angle measurement using an adjustable protractor. Place each side of the protractor against opposite walls and note the angle of the space.
2. Set the crown molding piece upside down on a flat surface, such as a workbench.
3. Place the adjustable protractor on the back of the crown molding and mark the angle with a pencil.
4. Use a wood saw to cut the angle into the molding. Start slowly to begin the cut and then finish with long, even strokes.
5. Dry fit the molding into place to ensure your angle fits the space properly. Trim as necessary with the saw to correct any issues.
