Always observe all of your saw’s instructions, including those for positioning and clamping the workpiece. In some cases, it may not be possible to set the re- quired angles on a particular saw or type of saw, and an alter- native means of performing the cut will need to be used. For ex- tremely acute (sharp) angles, it may be necessary to make the cut using a taper jig with a table saw or circular saw.

Determining Angles for

Compound Miter Cuts

The Miterfinder™ can be used to easily determine the miter and bevel angles needed to create pre- cision joints at compound angles. This is particularly useful when cut- ting crown molding laid flat on a compound miter saw.

Procedure

1) Set the Spring Angle

The spring angle is the angle be- tween the back of the crown mold- ing and the wall.
