Jig Enables Accurate Cutting of Crown Molding New York, NY (August 14, 2013) – The tradition of crown molding, which dates back to ancient Greece and Rome, is still popular today. The challenge for carpenters, builders, cabinet and furniture makers, woodworkers and do-it-yourselfers has always been the accurate cutting to create seamless corner joints.
Whether dressing up adjoining ceilings and walls, adding decorative elements to cabinetry and furniture, or enhancing door and window hoods, crown molding lends artistic flair.
Eliminates Trial and Error
To accomplish the task easily and affordably, General Tools & Instruments has introduced EZ Pro Crown King (880), eliminating trial and error and saving time and money.
Unlike other crown molding jigs, the Crown King requires no assembly and is designed for ease of use. Out of the box, it enables the production of interior and exterior corner joints with the three most common crown molding spring angles.
The Crown King comprises two pieces: the jig itself and an insert/adapter. Without the insert, the jig is positioned for cutting 45-degree spring angle moldings. With the insert, it is reconfigured to accommodate 38- or 52-degree spring angles.
No Complicated Miter Angles
In combination with a miter saw, the jig creates precise joining angles. It streamlines the creation of crown molding by eliminating complicated compound miter angle calculations, coping of joints, compound-angle cutting, back-cuts, auxiliary fences, and confusing upside-down miter box positioning.
Headquartered in New York City since 1922, General Tools & Instruments produces and markets more than 1,500 precision tools and hand-held instruments.
