You could just take an appropriate sized drill bit to the end of a piece of quarter round and get exactly the shape you need to butt up against the other piece of molding. Don't even need the fancy tool. I think with quarter round I would be more inclined to go with coping.

That means all right side corners are easy, then you have to turn the wood upside down and face it backwards to get the left hand side. That's where Eliot came in. With 1/4 round I had to mark the top because top and bottom look the same! It's tough having the client walk you through your job... Lyle, I think what you are talking about is coping. I didn't do that, I mitered all my corners. My saw is old and only goes to 45 degrees on one side.

You just measure one angle, set that miter on the saw, measure the other angle and set that angle on the other miter plane. one chop, shit's cut. super easy. it took me about four hours to figure out that it was easy. probably the same with crown moulding. <a href="http://s786.photobucket.com/albums/yy141/donnylaundry/?action=view&current=yumshed3.jpg" rel="nofollow"></a> compound miter saw. you’ve got one, jon-0.

So, you could make a straight cut on the molding for one edge of the ceiling and then the piece you cut with a jig would fit right over the top of it.

That's where you remove the wood with the second cut. It takes forever and we never did it on photo shoots. I just nailed the beejeezus out of it and caulked it in. If it moves it's because it's an earthquake and my trim work will not be a problem. It was miters on inside and outside corners. Are you the handy man at your place or did you buy something new enough you don't have to worry? yet... Don’t tell Eliot but I didn’t cope my inside corners.

I'm with you, man, it's tough to visualize. If I recall correctly, you have to make 2 cuts? One to set the angle for the exposed face and one to remove the wood behind it so it fits in the corner? Thinking about it gives me a headache. Was it the corner cut throwing you off? I’m with you, man, it’s tough to visualize. If I recall correctly, you have to make 2 cuts?
