   I do not know what you mean.

   What is the profile? Scotia/Cove, Qtr round, Flat stock or a small crown?

   Specifically are trimming the wall ceiling intersection or a wall to wall intersection?

   I'm thinking cove molding running  around perimeter of room @ ceiling, and you're wanting to intersect cove molding running vertical in corners with that.

   Am I close?

    

   Everything will be okay in the end.  If it's not okay, it's not the end.

   if it's cove...Hold it on the fence of your saw like it sits on the wall...in other words, pretend the fence is the wall and the table is the ceiling . And yes...it is sorta like cutting crown...you can think of it that way, backward upsidedown cuts...this stuff makes me think every once in a while...and if you get in a hurry it'll getcha!

   Good luck to you

   If you are thinking a three way miter, stop thinking that way. I won't work effortlessly, and the effort outweighs the advantage.

   That detail always looks like crud, but when you are using the same stock ( as in a panelled room) thats what you get. You need to vary either the corner detail or the crown detail.

   It is cove, it's just to trim the top of new pantry.

   It is for wall to ceiling.

   Thanks everyone!

   Hold it in the miter box as it will be seen.  Like it will be on the pantry, no need to cut it upside down and backwards like crown.Spheramid Enterprises Architectural Woodworks

   He could also cope the corner (like an inside crown corner) it would look the best if done right.

   If I got it right, I'm picturing 3/4" COVE molding, it don't get coped. No need to. It doesn't shrink up and open gaps, and is a real PITA to cope.

   You ever cope that profile?

   But I could be mis-picturing what he is talking about, that happens. I STILL cant figure what MSLietys shed roof is supposed to be..I got lost somewhere when Framer started with the trapeziods.Spheramid Enterprises Architectural Woodworks

   "If you are thinking a three way miter, stop thinking that way. I won't work effortlessly, and the effort outweighs the advantage."

   It's possible to cut a three way miter under certain conditions. The profile must be symmetrical about the centerline of the material, and all the angles at the intersection must be equal.Study of a Three Branch Compound JointJoe Bartok
