How to install crown molding! Crown molding can be one of the most frustrating and challenging carpentry skills to learn. I have been installing crown for over 25 years and will share secrets and techniques I use for a quick and professional looking installation. If you would would like to learn or have struggled with crown molding, my goal is to get you going as fast as possible.

Have you ever heard the term "Upside down and backwards" for cutting crown molding angles? Thats one of the common tips given for installing and although it is correct, more info is needed in order to save a lot of mistakes and wasted material. In this video, I take you through the process of installing 4 1/4" crown molding in a living room from start to finish. I cover details such as understanding room layout, types of corners, angles, determining direction of cuts, coping and easiest way to position material on the saw. I also include the final process I use for paint grade moldings showing caulking techniques for perfect painted trim work.
