Mitering quarter round

[mass_burner]

I'll admit I'm lost on this one. Had two recent needs to install QR molding, both at non 45 d angles. YT is all over the place.

I realized I need to bevel cut on my chp saw, but I can't find the opposing cut.

If youre doing a wall that is not 90 degrees, use a bevel square or t square to figure out the angle of the wall. Then cut your miters to half of that for each

My chop saw only tilts one way, can I do this with that limitation?

Inside corners, cope it. It'll stay tight with seasonal wood movements. Outside corners you'll have to miter. If your saw turns only 1 way, flip the work piece 180 degrees. Practice on scrap to get the technique. You can also do it all by hand.

I tried flipping the work over and it didn't match.

Try drawing the cut out on your work piece. Itll allow you to flip and rotate it to get the cut you want.

Can you draw out your angle? The bevel gauge mentioned above is a great help.

One other trick is running a handsaw down the joint between the 2 pieces. It'll take a bit off each side, leaving you with a tight joint.

Its probably shoe molding. Different height from width. Then flipping wont work.
