Help, how can I solve the ceiling trim angle?

[Carro_D]

My partner and I used this guy's tips when we were installing ceiling moldings with odd angles. The tip starts around 0:50 in the video. Hope it helps!

Sorry for hijacking the thread, but thanks for the tip.

thank you so much, it was very interesting

This is how it turned out after many retries and it's entirely different angles. I must correct and say that the odd angle on the wall was 14 degrees.
I cut the trim on the right at +25 degrees and the trim on the left at -3 degrees.
I placed the left trim to the right of the saw blade with the back side (unpainted side) towards me.
I placed the right trim on the left side of the saw blade upside down, so that the side facing the ceiling is down during cutting.
This makes no sense but I still think it turned out as close as it could.

The interior corner was easier and more logical.

Thank you for all the tips and support

I can just suggest that many "real" rulers provide the possibility to measure the angle with printed degrees on. Perhaps it's reprehensible to suggest that actually, but it's hard to justify (for some) getting a tool to measure just a single angle.

now it's done, it took me a couple of hours to get it right, but you learn something new every time.

That looks good! As I said, even the most experienced make mistakes with hålkäl/svanhals

thank you so much, it was quite a puzzle and an experience/knowledge gained.
