Hello.
In desperation after cutting x-meters of trim, I'm now asking for some help with cutting crown molding.
It took some time to learn how to do the corners on the ceiling.
The solution was to only miter and to turn the molding upside down in the saw.
Now something else has come up.
The ceiling slopes 15 degrees down at the end of the kitchen.
SEE PICTURE.
My guess now is that you should instead tilt the miter saw?
I have a nice Blue Bosch, but it can only tilt one way.
No matter how I tilt and cut, it doesn't turn out well.
Anyone with tips, please!
I just realized in panic that the corner at the end that should then turn 90 degrees is even harder :/
I guess this can't be solved in a nice way without doing some kind of ending?

If you're going to paint the trim, cut as best as you can and get gaps, then fill with latex caulk (the painter's best friend) and paint. Cutting at two angles is difficult and almost impossible with the trim you have for it to fit. If it had been a regular ceiling trim, it would have worked.
Made jigs out of some wood scraps, so you can hold the moulding in the position it has when it's on the wall.
The other trickier one, I made the slanted one go all the way to the wall, on the straight one I traced the moulding's shape and carved the end decently so it fit into the moulding's shape. Then latex caulk and paint.
