WM 54 Crown 2-1/4" - 9

This WM 54 crown mould 2-1/4" - 9 measures 2.250" in width by .562" in thickness. The time-honored terminating profile comprises a two-tangent radius cyma recta in the center. It's flanked by a 9/16" vertical line on the top left, and a 5/32" tall line below. The lower portion is attached to a 5/16" radius cove joined to a 5/32" broad line segment at the design's bottom right corner. The spring angles are fixed at thirty-eight and fifty-two degrees; these specific back bevel cuts set the installed height at 1-55/64" tall with a projection of 1-9/32" across the top. The recommended rough wood rip size for milling sprung (laying horizontally flat) using four-quarter lumber is 2-1/2" wide.

Read our commentary about axial constant positioning for crown bevels, the article will help you set the profile axially on the first try when milling, provided the machine is axially calibrated. Two high points in the design were deliberately positioned on the same plane. Our disciplined design features assure excellent hold-down conditions while milling if the machine's pressure shoe is parallel to its bed plates.

The current combined high-speed knife steel & template prices are listed below for quoting purposes. On itemized costs, you may only need knives for a specific part of the detail, saving money using cutters you already own. On most of our crown designs, we utilize a full 2.375"/60mm cutter head for the back bevel angles to allow for multiple axial adjustments on a wide range of profiles.
