  • In this video I show you how I installed my kitchen cabinet crown molding. This video might help you if you want to install crown on your cabinets. This video may REALLY help you if you want to install that crown from the top of your cabinets tight to the ceiling with no gap and your ceilings aren't perfect. Sometimes with old houses it may seem impossible to not have a gap above the crown but NOTHING is impossible! The key to success is preparation and patience!

  • @user-ib7en9pi3d

    Great job one trick I learned is when installing the crown after nailing up the first piece I then take caulking and run a very small bead along the edge that will be nailed next that way if there are any small cracks or the seams are not perfectly mitered the caulking will fill that small void or crack. I use a squared off old credit card to run across the the two edges and then wipe with a damp rag. I also use the trick when installing trim around doors. A lot of DIYers will try to caulk a seam that has a small crack and it will not look as professional as this trick

    I've always heard, "Cut your crown molding upside down and backward". Nobody ever explained to me to think of the bottom of your saw table as the ceiling!! Now, that makes more sense! Thanks for the tips!!

    Proof positive a kitchen doesn't have to be huge to be convenient and functional - well thought out plans make all the difference. And the crown makes it 'Top Shelf'. Great content, as always. Thank you.

    When this video first started I thought, "Oh, Geez! He's not going to add additional blocking to bump the molding out to the depth of the doors! Wrong!" I almost turned it off but decided to see the molding mullet you were going to have at the end. Thankfully, mid-vid, you attached the extra blocking on the front of the original blocking. Kudos! Job well done!

    Great video. Much appreciated. I’m assisting my carpenter doing our new kitchen. We have similar cabinets, although not white. And this has given me some excellent solutions to how we were going to do the crown. And we have an odd size ceiling height, so we will not be connecting to the ceiling which may make things easier for us. But I appreciate your detailed explanations.

    As a contractor, I see many home owners thinking that the mitre cuts that come together are the finished product. When in fact there's still caulking and painting before everything's done. Yours looks really good even before those finishing touches. Fantastic job!

    You could use the crown settings on your miter box so you can make cuts with the trim laying flat in the miter box instead of holding it at an angle. Makes for more precise cuts.

    • @TheFixerHomeRepair

      That would be ideal for perfect corners but this way is easier to adjust when (they almost always are) off.

    one tip.. when you cut the crown on the miter saw use a guide line or a stop block .. all crown have a reveal... so if you put it the same way on every cut you going to have much better match later...

    With MDF base moulding, I've used an angle grinder with an 80 grit flap wheel as a coping tool. It works very well, a little tough to control on the fine tuning but great for the bulkier stuff.

    Looking great. I did this in my kitchen a few years ago with crown supplied my the cabinet company. Stained cherry wood. It was crazy expensive before the Wuhan flu expensive! I think it was like $12.00 a foot. I ended learning to do the longest runs first since I was screwing up so much I could then use the screwed up piece in a shorter location. I did not enjoy the process.

  • @drnickriviera8270
    @drnickriviera8270 5 місяців тому

    Pro tip: when you figure out how the crown sits on the table saw, pencil mark a line then hot glue a scrap piece a wood down on the line to make a crown stop. This will ensure that when you set it down on the saw the spring angle is exactly the same every time.

I’ve done crown to the ceiling and even in a new house the ceiling can be wonky as hell! lol I never really understood coping but I think the way you showed it…I now understand a little better…definitely looks like a handy skill depending on the circumstances. Anyway I think you “nailed it” in this one, can’t wait to see the final result!
