I have been working on installing some plantation shutters as a loft jumping deterrent for my kids. I got the shutters from CL for cheap but they are about 3" smaller than the openings in my loft half wall. The shutters will be installed so they cannot move, centered in the openings and I was going to use 2.25" crown to frame in the shutters like a picture frame.
I had purchased the Freud 99-402 router bit to make some 45deg crown to hide the space and made a few test pieces. Enough testing to understand what I was in for. Well... Last week I happened across a sale at a salvage company selling crown molding at 1$ per 10'. They had the same profile I was planning on using so I got enough to do the job. (and a few hundred feet of unfinished alder,maple and cherry bigger stuff because I couldn't resist the deal)
Turns out the molding I got is the 52/38deg not the 45 I had planned. Because of this I would need to install it upside down to get the 1.5" height.
So I ask... Is it "wrong" to install it upside down?
