I always imagined TJ going to the local border crossing with a box of Te-Amos and hiring a few fresh bodies to do the work for him. But I have heard the same about the cedar. Plus being California everything known to man is labeled with cancer warnings.

Aw come on Ryan, I even built the jig shown in the pic to rip perfectly straight pieces of plywood. Not sure why I did since nothing in the closet is straight, plumb, level or has 90° angles all at the same time.
This will be my first time cutting & installing crown molding, so I bought a jig gadget for that - all those angles and working upside-down make my head hurt.

So what are you doing this weekend?
Do you miter or cope your crown?
I feel like I'm going to HAVE to cope since even the crown molding is Spanish Cedar - not like I can swab some caulk in the gap and paint it!

Coping gives you the best look in my opinion. You can get tighter joints so less filler is needed for paint or staining.
I just finished my 2nd scrimmage over 6 miles in 2 days my ass is tired

IT was not meant as a knock on you just your states natural resource. I would do it just for the hell of it if I could.

Oh, I've done it. Especially when they come to you: I was laying courses of block retaining wall and a truck pulls up with 3 dudes. They come up and ask if need help. I skeptically ask how much. Guy says $75. I hand him the trowel and say go for it. That dude slung that mortar like a fucking artist on a coke binge.
