FINALLY! Someone making their own crown molding rather than buying pre-made MDF. I’m a girl who had no idea anything about woodworking but I read endlessly & watched thousands of KZbin videos & finally bought a router table (from Harbor Freight). I’m sure it can’t compare to the ones you use - but I’m hoping I can still create some amazing things. I overthink everything I do rather than just go in & attempt something, so so far I’ve only made the same cut on numerous 3-8ft redwood 1.5x1.5’s with a square bit that leaves a 1/2” wide groove all down the center length of the boards that I later plan to fit the narrow ends of palette wood boards I cut to 18” inch long right into so they can serve as a side wall with their opposite ends fitting right into another 1.5x1.5 that I routed the same 1/2” square groove into. The thing is I’m scared to take the bit out & put another one in because I don’t know how I could ever reposition it to be the same place it was when I cut with the bit I have in there now. (But honestly I’m not as scared of taking this bit out as I am future bits when I’m Doing the kind of work you’re doing in this video. Unless I did all the boards I planned to Work with with the same 1st bit so that I could make sure that cut was consistent, no matter what - once I had to insert the 2nd bit … I’m just nervous about how I’m Going to measure where to start on the piece I’m routing so that it’s consistent with each piece after that & the same with the 3rd bit switch out.

Same here, except I stand when I pee lol. But I bought the same thing and love making moldings now!

Thank you

3:03 why did you have the “face down” side up here?

[@TheWoodworker4u]

Why are your rubber tires loose on your Jessem guides? I have the same set but mine has not losened up yet, but now concerned they might. Good video. I have not made crown yet, but its looking like I need to try this.

[@InfinityTools]

The tires are a little like the tires on a bandsaw and tend to stretch and wear out over time with use. We use our stock guides a lot. We are on our second set of tires in 6 years or so. I would say the first set lasted about 5 years and were replaced shortly after this video. We sell replacement sets here. www.infinitytools.com/jessem-clear-cut-router-table-stock-guides

[@miguelsontay280]

Hi Goo night how. Much is. The. Cost the crown molding bits thanks

[@InfinityTools]

Check the links in the description for pricing and more information.

[@keenanvaughn8453]

Shenanigans! How's it work with fur?

[@InfinityTools]

These bits should work really nicely in just about any type of Fir. I would not recommend trying to route natural or faux fur ;)

[@keenanvaughn8453]

Well played. I'll update my autocorrect.

[@amv1231]

Keenan Vaughn they always get you one way or another 😂haha dam Siri

[@zakj3769]

Why don't more trim carpenters use router bits to make their own crown moulding? Seems like you can make any type you like if you have the right bits.

[@InfinityTools]

It typically comes down to time. For projects where time is not a major concern or for custom furniture where you cannot find molding available in a specific species or style, making you own is often the only choice. Unless working on a very high end or historic project, most clients will not want to invest in true custom moldings.

[@mitocaf1]

Because a lot of carpenters they’re under contract so theyre trying to finish the job and cash out

[@jimmascaro2456]

Most clients just dont want to pay

[@maxgilbert18]

Americans love fast and cheap. Quality work is never a priority. These bits are hundreds of dollars for a set. It would take about a week to mill the crown moulding for a standard house so add a weeks labor to the cost plus materials, plus bits, plus extra overhead for router tables, set ups and workshop space. The cost to the consumer would be almost double.
