Compound Mitre Calculator Perfectly cut crown moulding or coving joints with the material laying flat in your power mitre saw.  Bevels takes the guesswork out of corner cuts by calculating the exact blade tilt and rotation settings for your saw. You simply enter the angle of the corner you are working on, and Bevels gives you the tilt and rotation for a perfect corner joint. Built in spring angle defaults for the most popular crown mouldings on the market, or enter your own custom spring angle of the material your are working with.
