most humble finish carpenter I've ever seen on RUclips.. so skilled too, pleasure watching these videos
Just found this old video….you have come a long way. Love your work.
Been following your vids from over the pond in the UK, great to see your skill, patience and high quality finish. I’m a retired electrical engineer but do a bit for myself, my two boys homes and a salon. So I learn a lot about angles, how to cut etc so your videos have a much wider audience than mouldings. Thank you dearly, as I know these take time and effort to produce and at times seem to be a thankless task. Many of us appreciate what you do and wish we had your skill. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You were just a baby! Crazy to see how far you've come in the last 7 years.
Dude I watch everything you do. Never seen this. Two projects away from my first cabinet crown in a few years. Trying to get my rememory back!
Honestly, your home made crown stop was the biggest help in this video for me! I love that idea and am headed out to mod the saw for blocks now. Thanks dude! Oh.......and little mention of it in the comments......but no guard on your saw? You u got balls 😁
Omg! So young! I'm a finish carpenter who's been watching your videos for a few years but I had no idea you've been posting this long! You've come a long way.
Seven years later youtube decides I need this in the suggested list. First time they've ever been correct.
You're an artist bro... the quality and comfortability of these videos gets better with each job. Thanks, homie.
You came a long way from here. Im proud of you !👍 Lol heck , you’re not even wearing safety glasses for most of those cuts.
its cool to see how far your videos have come.
You can definitely tell how young he was back then in these vidoes..man where have I been the last 8 years he was on youtube
I'm about to jump into two full rooms doing crown all out including cabinets. I was just looking for tricks and I've got to say that CA glue and your "creeping" cuts are helpful. Thanks man and best wishes!
Great job, you made it look so simple !
Great job, you always make it look so easy and your results are so good.
Thanks for the video, I am getting ready to do some cabinets and bought the glue you used. Looks like it will help big time with the installation.
What a huge dirrence. That came out fantastic. Thanks for posting!
I just wanted to thank you for this video and the one titled "The Right Way to Cut Crown Molding". These techniques really helped with the install. Thanks for sharing. You have skills!
Great video. Excellent tips, nice soundtrack and nicely shot
Abcs
I love your work and you videos.... question if I wanted to add more crown to the whole kitchen how would I tie it in to the existing crown?
Great video! Do you only glue the outside corners? Thanks!
Love your videos. Can u make more crown mounding trim videos for cabinets? Do you ever use returns on the ends of cabinets or just go straight into the wall?
Thank you for sharing your tips . You are a craftsman.
Duuuuude! Good tunes! Great workmanship!
The funk is a nice add in. Great job.
I love the idea of using CA glue. Very nice work on the molding. I learned a few tricks to add to my cabinet building skills. Thank you :-)
for sure!
The guys l work with ran out of their P2-10 activator and are using my small spray bottle activator set. That was the best tip from you guys. I learn something from all your vids.
He turned me into ca glue for a lot of trim work. Now I get made fun of because I freakin glue everything 😂. All my base gets glued now too. I find it provides much tighter, crisp corners that nails won’t move around. I love that stuff!
Brilliant video as always
any tips to install crown moulding on cabinets flush to the ceiling without the extension board above the cabinet like in your video. here is my dilemma. I have a 3 1/4" crown and only 3 1/8" to 2 1/2" above the cabinets to the ceiling. So i cannot get the crown to lay flat or the points to come together. my father wants to cut the points longer. Any suggestions?
Nice vid and I love the Oceans Eleven theme music.
What type of glue are you using or do you recommend? Also what spray are you applying after you apply the glue?
Do you recommend measuring multiple lengths/corners, cutting and instating inside/outside corners as a whole? Or install a piece, secure it, then go cut the next piece?
Would you suggest installing crown moulding? or Frown moulding?
Very nice and clean job. That's the experience I am talking about. So, at the end, kitchen looks so attractive that every woman dreaming to have one in time life.. Now, about the instructions you provided. I havent see much of tutorial on the video , but you should provide us more details about cutting corners and angle. Thank you for shering this video.
Beautiful man. I have enjoyed your videos very much. Have learned so much. What size finish nail did you use? Also did you just hide the nail or go back and put wood filler and stain?
Thanks!
That looks so nice!!
I have installed a pantry cabinet next to my fridge and I need to split a glued joint to extend the crown around the new cabinet. What's the best way to split the glued joint? Thanks in advance.
that was a great idea of spraying glue on the pieces and then they stick and where can you buy that?
Do u use brads for all ur cabinet crown or a pin nailer?
What do you think of new 12inch makita slide compound
You have come a long way
Hi Richard, notice you applied the activator on the same side of glue, Is not suppose to be applied on the other piece of molding? Nice video thanks
Could you explain the measuring process? Thank you for the videos and taking the time to make them.
Nice work richard. Why do you spray the actuator on the glue ???
Very nice work, professional
Do you shoot nails up into the top of the crown (into the ceiling)?? I see you go all along the bottom but never the top.
How do you crown cabinets that are together with different heights but have the same depth?
How do you deal with really unlevel ceilings? Thanks.
nice clean job congratulations
You should make a video about nailing pattern on stain grade, and filling nail holes on stain grade... I got it down, just enjoy watching your videos. I do a lot of concrete and miss doing residential lol. I joke at work that I use to be a carpenter and now I'm just a construction worker lol This company I work for pays me well and the only residential I do is on the side lol..... Another Good video tho!
Richard,This is the best video I've seen how the crown molding is installed on kitchen cabinets. I really like how the ca glue works on the molding.
NIce job. What size and pattern crown did you use here?
Very nice! & Great Channel!
Thanks for the video, got all the tips for crown in 5 minutes. I'm going to set that jig up on my saw right now, should be done with the crown by dinner.
+Mark Johnson Sounds good man! Great attitude!
Hey Ken Bush, just ignore him. I have already had to block him from my channel. All he does is talk crap and say hes better than me.
How do I set up that jig?
The white board on your saw that’s screwed down is what I need to figure out. The home made jig thing. Anyone know tips or measurements etc. Or does he have vids for that. Thc
Last year I installed lip crown for the first time which is a great idea for cabinets that are far down from the ceiling. I had to widen out the cabinets because of a bigger refrigerator and it took months to get the crown after I finally found the manufacturer in Canada. Had to get an eight footer for the front with two returns into the wall. The crown that they made and sent me was so bowed that when I went to install it, glued with 2P-10, that it sounded like a gun going off when the joint let go. I gave up, took pictures, and the manufacturer sent more for free but it took more than a month to get the new stuff. I like the idea of lip molding but it took a little experimenting to mark the cut line.
AbbieHoffmansGhost What is lip moulding?
Lip moulding is crown that sits on top of the cabinet as it has a rabbet on the back of the bottom where it sits on the cabinet. No need to site the face frame for a level line as it sites itself. You either use finish screws or nails from the back of the crown down into the face frame so you don't see any face nailing that you have to fill. Eastland Kitchens at 77 Industrial Park Road Minto, NB E4B 3A6 Canada makes it. The toughest part for me was getting the length of cut correct as measuring it was different because of the rabbet. I cut it about 3 times to make sure I was not too short and it only works for cabinets that don't do to the ceiling.
WhAt is the brand name of the catalyst glue components that you use. Seems hard to locate?
Hi Rich....where is the guard on your chop saw?
Great video I was break dancin to just begun 😀
Really like your videos - clear and well presented. I would be interested in your approach to uneven ceilings - scribing remedies for crown moulding. I have a kitchen where the cabinet crown was installed without consideration of the varying ceiling depth, leaving unsightly gaps between the crown and the ceiling. Would love to see how you tackle that challenge. Keep up the content - fast becoming my favorite channel.
Karl dickhaus the finish you choose here is going to be completely down to you. The ceiling is out so there is no way around that and you have to put your work in level so you are left with two possibly three choices. Your first one would be to scribe your moulding to the ceiling so that it is tight all the way along but I personally think that would look unsightly.
Secondly you could set it so that it is touching the ceiling at it's lowest point which would leave you with gaps which is probably the best bet unless you want to go to the lengths of getting it right.
Thirdly you could set it to just below the lowest point and then add some kind of flat trim which you would then scribe to the shape of the ceiling thus leaving no gaps and would probably look a lot better than what you currently have.
You have to bear in mind though that this type of moulding can only really be set at a height determined by the height of your wall units.
Now personally I wouldn't put up with a ceiling that is miles out I would put in a new,level,lower ceiling but then again I'm able to do that myself whereas you may well have to pay someone to take the units down,fit the new ceiling,re install the units and the trim which would be costly.
Like I said at the beginning it's all about how far you are willing to go and what level of finish that you find acceptable. Good luck bud!
I have the same issue with uneven ceilings, about 1/4" gaps in various places.
I can push the crown flat with the ceiling but I need to figure how to adjust the cuts so the miters join properly.
What do you do when face frame is proud of side? Knotch cab or moulding? Or ?
Thanks
Notch the face frame
Great tip for the jig to cut the crown
You do very nice work and I can tell you are dedicated to your craft. Thanks for sharing!!!
Good job when you have a finish product needs to be perfect to looks good 👍👊
That's great music. What's that last piece that starts around 6:42?
What is the best way to measure and Mark the crown to cut it
Hey brother, great video! I have to install a crown on a kitchen that has a corner cabinet, how can i set up the saw or the crown, shoul i do it backwards with the top of the crown flat on the saw? Thanks for any suggestion
thanks brother! i just realized the piece of wood set in front of the saw< i know what to do now...! thanks again!
Your video are great
If you have to join 2 lengths of crown together over a long distance. Do you prefer a butt joint or a scarf joint? In regards to pre-finished solid wood crown. Thanks!
I always use a scarf joint cut at 22.5 degrees. I always choose to put it in the least obvious place, and make the cut in the the direction that is least likely to be noticed. Thanks for the comment.
+dfw crown Cool! Thanks for the reply! Keep up the good work.
You are amazing 😉
Why do you still use air hose brad nailer ?
Wouldn’t a battery powered pin nailer make easier work ?
can you do a vid on how to make those corner cabinet crown molding cuts? it's usually 22.5 but I tried that degrees on a corner cabinet 2 days ago and they didn't match on an angle even tho I cut them at 22.5 they fitted straight on but not on an angle. not sure what I did wrong...does the top of the crown molding always faces towards the mitre saw or down towards you?
Enrique Velez you need to find out the spring angle of that crown, that is usually the problem when the angles dont fit right.
I've noticed in all of your videos that you use the Dewalt brand blades for your miter saw. Can I recommend the Freud blades? In my years as a remodeler I have yet to find a better multi use blade for the price, that will do all types of cuts and leave a smooth finished edge. I've used $200 blades and came back to the Freud brand. The Makita blades are also top notch but are a bit pricier. They do last though. I find that you can usually tell a good blade by the sound. The Dewalt blades don't compare.
pimpovic2
Freud used to be good. good four years ago i switched to CMT Orange and FS Tool and can't be happier. Never junk freud anymore.
What's FS tool
pimpovic2, hey Brotha I’m with you 100% on not using Dewalt blades! I’ve been cutting our kitchen cabinet crown with a 60 tooth Diablo fine finish blade, fitted on my Milwaukee M18 7 1/4” Fuel Dual Bevel Miter Saw (this was my first trim project with the saw and I love it!). I’ve had to have made well over 100 cuts with the blade, which is still leaving a glass like cut. However, today I noticed some slight blowout, so I decided to change the blade in order to finish up the cutting. I had a 60 tooth Dewalt blade I decided to try. So I changed it out...I couldn’t believe what a shitty ass cut it made on the 45 degree miter!!! It was rough, I mean really rough, like someone took a file to the wood. Never again will I use a Dewalt blade! I put another 60 tooth Diablo blade on the saw. Same as the first blade...smooth as glass cut.
The Freud Diablo blades I’m using are made in Italy.

How did you attach the top filler piece on cabinets
4thgen camaro a bit late, but I just recently did this. I attached 2X4 with screws through top of cabinet and a 2X2 into the ceiling. You can then screw the filler into the 2X4 and the 2X2.. Then you cover up screws with some thin trim on the lower end and the crown covers the screws up top.
Blast from the past!
I'm glad the editing got much better. Lol
Talk about a throw back omg
I have been using a 23 ga. headless pin nailer on cab crown for a while now. I noticed you using an 18 ga.,….I think.
Any thoughts on why or why not use a headless pin nailer.
By the way love you vids. Have learned a ton.
Wow ..! .. you have come a long way from your First videos .. audio is horrible .lol . And you can definitely see how far you come . Great vids !
good job well done
It would have been nice to see what product you used and your technique in filling the nail holes in the video. I think would opt for trying to match the putty to the stain as I have not yet found a stain-able filler that accepts the stain anywhere near the same color as the wood. Most times it barely darkens and then you have light spots. I'll look at my "fine woodworking stores" for getting a matching putty product as the big-box stores just don't seem to have a product that works for me at least. Thanks for the feedback.
What angle did you cut?
Nice Job
Great jigs. Thank you!
How did he make the jig. Measurement etc.
This is a very helpful video ,and the music makes me feel like I'm watching Hawaii Five-0 thanks for sharing your expertise with us Richard.
thanks for the tricks
Nice kitchen
I use a pin nailer to install my kitchen crown. Leave such a small Hall that there's no need to fill anything afterwards because you can't see the fasteners
Which 1970s police TV action drama is that music from? Good info though.
So how do you fill the brad nail holes...when using stained molding?
I wish you say the angles that you are cutting them in especially that outside to the middle cut🤔
Wow your filming and editing have come such a long way from this which I'm presuming is one of your earliest videos.
I wonder how many people have pulled you for not having the saw guard on. It does look gnarly as fuck without it though!
I was wondering how many hours an installation like the one in the video would take for the kitchen size shown.
Would one expect a contractor to charge hourly, cost plus, or proved an estimate for this quality of work?
Very instructional, Thank you
probably they'll charge you for the job is rare they charge by the hr unless they not experience on estimating or its to complicated for them so they dont want to risk losing
Y'all don't do outside trim?
I use pin nails instead of 18ga for the rest good job :) maybe put some wood filler
I noticed the ceilings seems to be pretty straight. Have you even had to scribe the crown to a ceiling?
Yea..that's when your really really good
Nice
I cannot find your video called the right way to cut crown molding? This kitchen video was exactly what I wanted for my 36" cabinet install with built up crown to the 8' ceiling however you do not show the steps to build up the molding with nailing strips and the fascia board.
No saw guard?
Dude, Your Blade is Rough! Sharpen that thing. I can see the tear out on that crown from my house. lol
What ktime be of glue and activator spray do you use?
he sells the glue on his web site
Robert Stewart ,
That is CA glue , like Crazy-Glue with an activator sprayed on for instant cure.
Outstanding video, thank you. Could you please lower the music volume, quickly it becomes annoying. Yes, I kept lowering it then when you talked I had to raise it, then if I was not quick enough I had to backup the video. We came to hear you not listen to music.
