 Here's the left-side transition (facing the stage). I
didn't do a great job on this side and ended up having to put a 1"
triangular piece of wood in the lower-right corner to complete the
transition. The color of the wood and the molding pretty much cover it up.
When stained, the fix is basically invisible. |
 |
 Here's the right-side transition. After being pretty
frustrated building the left side transition, my mother-in-law said,
"Why don't you just cut out a paper pattern and get that right, then
cut the wood to match the pattern?" Good point! That's what I did on
the second one, and it was much easier and turned out better. |

Crown molding at left side of doorway. The moldings that
butted into the door frame were the two most challenging pieces of molding
in the project because I had to conform the shape of the molding to the
contour of the doorway. On this side, I chiseled out part of the door
frame to make the molding fit more squarely against the door frame. |
 |
On the right side of the doorway, I didn't do any chiseling
on the door frame. I first cut out a piece of cardboard to copy the
contour from the door frame, then I used that to use the jigsaw to cut out
the the molding as close as possible to the molding. Then I spent about an
hour on the ladder with the Dremel tool shaving the contour on the
molding to conform to the door frame. On balance, I think this side was
easier than the other side. Neither of them look perfect, and from a
distance the overall effect is basically the same either way. |
