I am going to be installing crown molding for the 1st time.
when I miter cut the molding for either an inside or an outside corner is it just a 45 degree angle or a compound angle??????

BMI281 - pls go to woodworking projects forum (under crown molding). The replies on my (now your) question were great! It is a question of mitered or coped cut. Quite confusing until I had someone do both cuts. I preferred the mitered because it is easier. It takes practice. If I can do it, you can!

I moved this question here for a proper answer. BM281, you may try the search button at the top and type in "mitered cuts" or "crown molding"
