Been cutting crown molding backwards for ten years.
A guy on a job in Phoenix last week asked why my spring angle was upside down. I had to stare at my miter saw for a solid minute before it clicked. Anyone else have a basic thing they just got wrong for way too long?

Ever think you had a tool figured out, only to find out you were doing it wrong? I used to always measure from the short point on my miter cuts, because that's how my dad showed me. Then a friend saw me doing a deck and asked why I wasn't measuring from the long point for outside corners. It blew my mind. I had been making it so much harder on myself for years, and my joints were never perfect because of it. That one tip changed everything for me.
