Four walls, one [flat] ceiling, and four inside corners. Crown molding installation ought to be simple enough....but it has not been!

Following advice of a how-to book, I have already installed wall to wall lengths on the N & S walls, butted to the corners. The [good ol'] book said to now just cope the two other pieces to fit. Please tell me how I mark that angle on the pieces to be coped. Heaven knows, I do not want to take down what is already up there. Plus, this is old molding - not something that I can go purchase more or - and I have little to spare.

Thanks very much. K. Stenborg


I know there are a lot of how to books on the market, but none of them provide any valuable information. Most saw "then cut it to fit". The only book that you will find anywhere that actually tells you all the saw settings and how to cut all your crown molding and trim is at www.compoundmiter.com
