Filler
Blocks
for Cutting
Crown
Moldings
The majority
of crown
moldings
have contact
surfaces
of 52: and 38 to the rear surface
of the molding.
When
joining
the face of the filler block these angles
must be
maintained.
The
following
illustrations
show
two
methods
that can be used when cutting crown moldings
depending
on how the filler block
is attached
to the
fence.
When the filler blocks are attached
with the face of the
filler
blocks
pointing
upwards,
the
molding
must
be
placed
on the table upside
down
When
the filler blocks
are attached
to the fence
with
the face
of the filler blocks
pointing
downwards,
the
molding
must be placed on the table right side up. This
is the same position
as it would be when nailed between
the ceiling
and wall.
Make
2 filler blocks
10 inches
long
Fasten
blocks
se-
curely to fence. For block face pointing
downward,
you
may need to drill new fastener
holes in the fence.
