Crown Molding can easily add a finishing touch to a room. It is basically applied along the closures where ceiling meets wall. It is an excellent way to decorate or accent a room or kitchen. It is also known as cornice.
Various materials are used for this purpose such as wood, plaster, fiber, polyurethanes, aluminum, etc. But, most of the manufacturers manufacture plastic and foam for this purpose. It is often regarded as one of the most important architectural design pattern that is highly used to detail any interior space.
Toy Storage Cabinets
The chief problem that is frequently faced while installing a crown molding is related to angles. It is very difficult to cut angles correctly. I will recommend you to practice a lot before actually cutting angles. If you are doing molding for the first time then you should choose a small project.
Let me tell you one thing that a quality miter saw and a coping saw is very essential for cutting angles correctly. The cost of a coping saw is less than a quality miter saw. In this article I would mainly stress on some basic cutting styles. Lets us start with the first one.
1. 45 Degree Angled Cuts
You have to cut the crown molding that is according to the dimensions of the room. Let me tell you that you must cut perfect 45-degree angles at corners because all the cabinets usually come in the shape of a square or rectangle. You must carefully study the dimension before installation.
2. Coped Cuts
It is usually seen that the corners which are not exactly 90/45 degrees are difficult to mold. Since all the corners are not perfectly square so I will advice you to use a coped joint for such interior corners.
3. Scarf Cut
Scarf joint is often used to join 2 segments together. Scarf joint is basically used to join two pieces of crown molding that are cut at 45 degree angle.
Crown molding consists of various kinds of molding that are specially designed for capping walls, cabinets, sinks etc. You can either purchase a pre-finished crown molding or you can even manually create and install your own designed molding. The decision is completely yours. Make sure that the design which you choose is compatible with other components and equipments of your kitchen.
You must practice a lot before actually cutting for a crown molding. I hope this article will help you to make this job a little easier.
