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.

How to Determine The Spring Angle of A Crown Molding

1Place the crown molding on the Miterfinder™ as shown in Figure. Note that the back of the crown molding must be placed on the top of the tool’s main leg 6 and that the lower edge of the crown molding must face the adjustable leg 2.

2Open the adjustable leg to the angle that exactly matches the lower edge of the crown mold- ing.

3Subtract displayed angle mea- surement from 180° to deter- mine the spring angle.

Notes:

The lower edge is typically the more-detailed edge of the crown molding.

The most common crown mold- ing spring angles are 38° and 45°.
