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 YouTube 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.

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.
