Product Description
The Cut-N-Crown 52 degree spring angle jig is the largest slant you can buy for crown molding standards. No Matter what, this jig will hold your crown molding at a perfect angle to allow for a perfect compound miter saw cut without having to worry about setting your saw to accomplish it.
The 52 degree spring angle is usually the largest crown molding typically used in homes that have higher ceilings. The larger angle crown molding shows off the detail of the crown even at higher than normal heights. If it did not slant out your guests would not be able to see the detail of the crown molding.
If you do not know how to install crown molding at all, then please let THE crown molding guy, Sheldon, teach you by watching our video. ''What is a spring angle?''
Finding the spring angle of your crown molding is simple: Cut a small section of molding and hold it up the way it will sit mounted on the wall and ceiling. Now measure from the ceiling down the wall to the point where the molding touches the wall. Take that measurement and compare it with the measurement from the wall across the ceiling to the point where the molding touches the ceiling. If the wall measurement is longer, you have a spring angle of 38°. If the ceiling measurement is longer, your spring angle is 52°. If both measurements are the same, the spring angle is 45°.
If that is too complicated for you, another simple technique is to cut a 45 degree wedge, hold up the crown to the wall (at any height) as it is to sit and drop the wedge behind the crown, if it doesn''t fit it is 38, if it fits perfect, it is a 45, and if there is some play between the wall and the wedge you are using 52 degree spring angle.
