   Steve o, the answer is M= 13.6   B=17.9  I recently bought a Bosch miter finder. Look for it in tool crib.            Leigh

   LEIGH,

   And just what do these number represent?If you are using a 38° crown the settings would be 14.3° miter setting and a 17.55° bevel setting.If you are using a 45° crown the settings would be 16.3° miter setting and a 15.7° bevel setting.That information can be found here.

   Joe, I assumed he was using 38 crown.  My numbers were from memory, but surely not more than a half degree off. can you adjust the bevel on your saw within those tolerances.

   Hi, Leigh-

   On my CMS I can adjust the miter within 1/4 degree- I think it's called a vernier scale. The tolerance for setting up the bevel angle, well......................

   LEIGH,

   Yes I can, but that's not the point. If he's using 45° you're more then a 1/2° off. You should have stated what degree crown the settings were for.

   Hey Joe,

   Thanks so much for the terrific information.  I was able to complete that crown moulding project very quickly last night, without having to waste time trying to figure the precise miter and bevel settings!  Your chart on your website is exactly what I was hoping to find.

   Thanks again!
