GENIUS! This is hands down the best tutorial on crown molding. I just could not figure this out for the life of me. Thank you so much for sharing you and your Dad's brilliants!

Awesome video. Clear and easy to understand.

The best crown molding instruction video on KZfaq. Thank you so much!!!

Hands down the best teaching video. I’ve wasted so many . Thanks !

I watched a bunch of other people talk in circles about how to cut molding but this is the most direct and simple. THANKS!

Thank you! I have done crown so infrequently that I have to brush up on it and this basic concept will now be my go to for painted crown. (The coping method is what I have used in the past.) Appreciate your vid!

The best and simplest video on crown molding. I don't think it would be that hard if I could find a video that properly explains it. Thank you!

Helped me so much! Quick and simple explanation!

Best crown moulding video on youtube. Very explanatory.

Great video. I have watched this several times. One add on to my miter I learned by watching was to add a taller skirt and this enabled me to get a better seat on the crown molding (top and bottom). I simply through bolted a 3/8" finished scrap piece of plywood to the fence on the left and right side of the blade (counter sunk the machine screws). Just make sure when you lower the blade that the housing clears the taller fence when cutting at a 45 degree angle.

The best simple and clear explanation about how to cut crown molding THANK YOU!!!! And blessings for everyone!!! 👍🏻

This video really helped me do a crown molding job for a customer. I've always had trouble doing crown. All the videos I saw on KZfaq didn't help. However your video is simple to understand. I watched it several times and the next day I was

This is perfect. After watching few videos on KZfaq I was able cut the crown. However, remembering which side to cut when was confusing. This perfect. U can write it down and just go for it. For DIY this is great.

I really needed that explanation on inside/outside corner orientation. Keep up the good work.

This video made it so easy! We watched several others and were about to quit until I found this one. Thanks and great job our project turned out great 😉👍

Thanks for the information! I watched a few other videos but I came back to yours and kept referring to it. The tape trick is awesome and also writing the notes about which side you are cutting on and the angle of the saw to give the correct cut. Those were key points that helped me a lot. Thanks again!

Thanks a ton! Great walk-through on cutting crown molding for both inside and outside corners.

Omg!! Thank you soooo much!! Best instruction ever!!!

The best explanation I have seen on cutting crown molding. I'm installing crown molding in our bathroom today and after watching your video last week...and again this morning, I feel more confident. Thank you !!!

Man, very good. And I can just taste that Bosch miter saw! What a great machine.

Probably watched like 10 other videos by now but they all just rushed thru it and even forgot to mention a few things like flipping the crown mold before cutting... Happy i stumbled across your video cause its a gem! Should be on top when searching for how to cut crown molding! Thank you for the video and going into details with everything, really helped me out ! :)

Best explanation I have ever heard. Good teacher. Very clear. I will tape those maxims to my saw as you have. I’ve wasted too much stock not to.

Thank you, save me about 900 bucks and most of it all made my dad proud.

THANK YOU for this video! I'm fairly handy, but crown molding has been my nemesis for years until this video. GREAT VIDEO! Kitchen cabinet crown installed!

Great video. I will install crown molding and this really helped me. Thank you very much

Good basic video, good camera angles as well. Thanks.

Very informative tutorial, thanks for making the process so easy to comprehend.

This was the best crown tutorial I've found. I've watched approximately 1254 of them. The goal for me now is to figure out exactly WHAT angle my inside (lazy susan) cabinet is at. Thank you!!

Years back I put up this same crown. Made pattern pieces because videos were not too thorough. I literally forgot to do master bedroom ...oops! So now I'm trying to figure out cutting AANNDD I realized I put the crown up on the other rooms walls upside down...HAHA!! Looks good tho. So I will install MB crown the same way the rest of the house is...Upside down! Thanks! GREAT EASY VIDEO!!

Omg!!! Your a genius!! I just cut my crown molding, I can’t believe it, my husband can’t believe, he said it was too hard to difficult, I just freaking did it!!!! Yasssss!!!! You just saved me $700. Thank you!!!🥰🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍

This helped me alot!!!! After searching for an hr , I found your video and got it! New subscriber#

Very simple instruction you are a great instructor, my project came out great thank you

Great instructional video. How much extra length would you add to your crown piece for an outside miter that is going to meet an adjacent outside miter?

Best video on how to cut crown molding 👍

Thank you so much for such a great explanation. Im just learning trimwork to get my house on the market and just couldn't figure it out in my head!

Very informative and detailed. I love the step by step.

Simply explained, very helpful.

Thank you for this video!!

Everyone else on KZfaq just telling you " you have to cut the top side down and cut at an angle" without mentioning that the saw placement on left or right will dictate if an inside or outside cut and just assuming you know that. This is the only one I saw that actually walked through the saw positions needed for each type of corner needed

Many many many thanks! I had been intimidated for a sec, thought about paying someone...😂 I GOT THIS!!!

The easiest explanation without a lot of this and that, Thanks.

Thank you so much. Very understandable 👌🏾

oh my gosh! truly understand it now>> Thank you so much, so well done!

Well explained, tk you for your time.

You explain very well thank you so much!

Awesome way of explaining it crown felt intimdating but now i feel like can take it on

Wow, this is the first time I’ve watched a video that literally answers every question! I’ll be on your page often I can feel it!

Best lesson of the year

Great video!

Thank you sir. This was the best instructional video I could find. I’ll be watching more. I had already wasted one 16 ft piece but I know how to put half of it back together. I really appreciate the time you spent on this and your sympathy for us poor DIY SLOBS. 😂

Thank you good teaching

Great video Thank You

The very best explanation!! Thank you!!!

I'm trying to frame a brick wall with crown molding, so using the same crown molding on top and the sides instead of doing corner wall molding. How would I need to make the cuts for this to work?

Better than this old house instruction. Love to see you do the measurement and mark the piece and put it up. Do you measure your walls first, cut the pieces, then put it up or do you measure, cut the piece and then measure for the next wall?

That was very helpful. Thanks....

Thank you, that was very helpful!

Excellent teaching

very nice , thank you..

Thank you. The video is helpful

Excellent!!

This was a great tutorial. Thx for the expert vid advice.

Folks! This is what I gathered.. Copy the text and put it on your phone or print it. This man has ended my headaches and heartaches: WOOD UPSIDE DOWN on the Right of Saw + Saw angled to the Right = Inside Cut Corner WOOD UPSIDE DOWN on the Right of Saw + Saw angled to the Left = Outside Cut Corner WOOD UPSIDE DOWN on the Left of Saw + Saw angled to the Right = Inside Cut Corner WOOD UPSIDE DOWN on the Left of Saw + Saw angled to the Left = Outside Cut Corner That pretty much sums up what I haven’t been able to figure out watching more videos then I care to admit. Appreciate you using the Kiss Method. If I made an error - please correct me and I will edit it. Thx. Chris in Kalamazoo

"SAWSET PROTRACTOR" is the most accurate miter finder out there. No Math. No gimmick. Do the comparison.

oh I love you.. thanks you saved me..great help

Very useful video saved me from pulling my hair out

Very professional, thank you so much it will help me on my project

Hi Mike, good video. I was just wondering how you put the permanent marker on the blue tape. Did you have to measure the angle between the fence and the tape to be 45 degrees?

Thank you!!!!

One challenge not addressed in videos like this are when cutting crown, you're not cutting a 12" piece but rather a 12' piece. Keeping it on the fence perfectly with a piece that long can be difficult and cause the cut to be inaccurate. I prefer and compound-miter cut where the crown can lay flat to cut. All that aside great video, thumbs up from me.

great video

You mentioned another video where you make a mantel with a way to hide wires but I cannot find it anywhere. Can you supply a link?

Important start out with a good saw

Thank you.

A1 indeed cheers

Very nice and informative,

best video!!

did some crown molding after this and all i can say is that it's still tricksy when doing a lot of it.

Thank you

Can you do a video for coping. Basically a 90 degree that I'm installing on craftsman style header over a door way! And demonstrate where to measure please!

One important detail that is seen in the video but not mentioned: The fence where the molding tilts and sit on has to be tall enough to support the molding sitting at 45 degree angle. And the fence should not stop the blade to cut all the way thru (my miter saw is fix and can't get thru !!!, might have to get another one). In this video, the tall fence is made in wood and somehow get attached flat to the metal fence.

2:53 You should have spent a bit more time explaining your markings on the miter table. I had to watch it a few times to take notes on the proper blade & molding placement, but once I had it, PRESTO! This simple idea made all the difference for me! That is the BEST part of this whole video. Turned crown molding into a no-brainer!

Good mate! But how do you measure it? Lets say you need this piece to be 255mm e the other one 243mm. I really do not understand =/ I stuff up some pieces until I guessed the right position. Thank you
