Abstract

A crown molding jig device may include first and second frames. Each of the first and second frames may have a vertex portion, and first and second legs extending from the vertex portion. The second legs of the first and second frames may define a recess between. The first leg of the second frame may define first and second slots. The crown molding jig device may include first and second adjustable studs carried by the first leg of the first frame, and being slidably received by the first and second slots so that the recess is adjustable in size.

Claims (50)

1. A crown molding jig device comprising:

first and second V-shaped frames, each of said first and second V-shaped frames having

a vertex portion, and

first and second legs extending from said vertex portion;

said vertex portions of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a nested arrangement, said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being parallel;

said first legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a stacked arrangement;

said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames defining a recess therebetween;

said first leg of said second V-shaped frame defining first and second slots;

first and second adjustable studs carried by said first leg of said first V-shaped frame, and being slidably received by the first and second slots so that the recess is adjustable in size; and

first and second fastening nuts being respectively received by said first and second adjustable studs.

2. The crown molding jig device of claim 1 wherein each of said first and second V-shaped frames has first and second sides with multi-angle surfaces.

3. The crown molding jig device of claim 2 wherein each of said first and second sides comprises a first edge, a second edge at an acute angle to said first edge, and a third edge at an acute angle to said first edge.

4. The crown molding jig device of claim 1 further comprising at least one spacer block adjacent said first leg of said first V-shaped frame.

5. The crown molding jig device of claim 1 wherein said second V-shaped frame has a width less than a width of said first V-shaped frame; and wherein said, second V-shaped frame has a length less than a length of said first V-shaped frame.

6. The crown molding jig device of claim 1 wherein said first and second adjustable studs each comprises a threaded stud; and wherein said first and second fastening nuts comprise first and second threaded nuts being respectively threadingly received by said first and second threaded studs.

7. The crown molding jig device of claim 1 wherein said first and second legs of said first V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween; and wherein said first and second legs of said second V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween.

8. A crown molding jig device comprising:

first and second V-shaped frames, each of said first and second V-shaped frames having

a vertex portion,

first and second legs extending from said vertex portion, and

first and second sides with multi-angle surfaces between and extending from said vertex portion;

said vertex portions of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a nested arrangement, said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being parallel;

said first legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a stacked arrangement;

said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames defining a recess therebetween;

said first leg of said second V-shaped frame defining first and second slots;

first and second adjustable studs carried by said first leg of said first V-shaped frame, and being slidably received by the first and second slots so that the recess is adjustable in size;

first and second fastening nuts being respectively received by said first and second adjustable studs; and

at least one spacer block adjacent said first leg of said first V-shaped frame.

9. The crown molding jig device of claim 8 wherein each of said first and second sides comprises a first edge, a second edge at an acute angle to said first edge, and a third edge at an acute angle to said first edge.

10. The crown molding jig device of claim 8 wherein said second V-shaped frame has a width less than a width of said first V-shaped frame; and wherein said second V-shaped frame has a length less than a length of said first V-shaped frame.

11. The crown molding jig device of claim 8 wherein said first and second adjustable studs each comprises a threaded stud; and wherein said first and second fastening nuts comprise first and second threaded nuts being respectively threadingly received by said first and second threaded studs.

12. The crown molding jig device of claim 8 wherein said first and second legs of said first V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween; and wherein said first and second legs of said second V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween.

13. A crown molding cutting device comprising:

a crown molding jig device comprising

first and second V-shaped frames, each of said first and second V-shaped frames having

a vertex portion, and

first and second legs extending from said vertex portion,

said vertex portions of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a nested arrangement, said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being parallel,

said first legs of said first and second V-shaped frames being in a stacked arrangement,

said second legs of said first and second V-shaped frames defining a recess therebetween for receiving a crown molding piece,

said first leg of said second V-shaped frame defining first and second slots,

first and second adjustable studs carried by said first leg of said first V-shaped frame, and being slidably received by the first and second slots so that the recess is adjustable in size, and

first and second fastening nuts being respectively received by said first and second adjustable studs; and

a saw device configured to cut the crown molding piece in the recess.

14. The crown molding cutting device of claim 13 wherein each of said first and second V-shaped frames has first and second sides with multi-angle surfaces.

15. The crown molding cutting device of claim 14 wherein each of said first and second sides comprises a first edge, a second edge at an acute angle to said first edge, and a third edge at an acute angle to said first edge.

16. The crown molding cutting device of claim 13 further comprising at least one spacer block adjacent said first leg of said first V-shaped frame.

17. The crown molding cutting device of claim 13 wherein said second V-shaped frame has a width less than a width of said first V-shaped frame; and wherein said second V-shaped frame has a length less than a length of said first V-shaped frame.

18. The crown molding cutting device of claim 13 wherein said first and second adjustable studs each comprises a threaded stud; and wherein said first and second fastening nuts comprise first and second threaded nuts being respectively threadingly received by said first and second threaded studs.

19. The crown molding cutting device of claim 13 wherein said first and second legs of said first V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween; and wherein said first and second legs of said second V-shaped frame define an angle in a range of 25-75 degrees therebetween.
