How do I calculate angles for crown molding?

Use the `get_compound_molding_settings` tool by providing the corner angle, the spring angle of your molding, and whether it is an inside or outside corner.

Can I use this for simple baseboards?

Yes, use `get_flat_miter_settings` for any flat joint where no blade tilt is required.

How are the results formatted?

You can use `format_angle_to_dms` to convert decimal degrees into a format like 45° 30' for easy reading on your saw.

This MCP server provides precise calculations for woodworking projects. Use get_flat_miter_settings to determine the rotation needed for flat joints like baseboards or picture frames. For more complex tasks, get_compound_miter_settings calculates both miter and bevel angles for crown molding based on the spring angle. Finally, use format_angle_to_dms to convert decimal degrees into a human-readable format (degrees and minutes) that matches professional miter saw markings.
