Cut Outside Corners

Cutting crown molding flat
What happens here
For cutting outside corners, place the left-hand piece of crown molding on the left side of your miter saw, with the ceiling-facing edge against the saw's fence. Set the miter angle to 31.6 degrees. Tilt the saw's bevel to the right, setting the bevel angle to 33.9 degrees. Make your cut. For the right-hand piece of crown molding, it goes on the right side of the saw, also with the ceiling-facing edge against the fence. The miter angle should still be 31.6 degrees, but the saw's bevel should be tilted to the left, also at 33.9 degrees. Make your cut. For outside corners, remember that the saw direction is 'the same' as the corner you're making (e.g., left piece on left side, right piece on right side).
Goal: Create precise outside corner cuts for crown molding.
