Orientation
Be sure to specify which way to place your moldling style
Crown Orientation

cove up - an unusual orientation, this would depend upon your design
cove down - which is the most common orientation, if not stated otherwise, this would be the default orientation we would use in designing your application
bead up or down - in place of a cove
detail up or down - another way to state orientation
*if in doubt send us a drawing of your crown orientation
 
In Crown and Dormer Applications (also some Custom Pre-formed Applications), it's important to state which way the curve of your application bends. ISR (inside radius) or OSR (outside radius).
ISR - (concave) imagine trimming inside of a barrel or a ball
OSR - (convex) imagine trimming outside of a barrel or ball
Case Orientation
In Casing Applications, it's important to select whether to bend the molding on its edge (as in true radius applications) or on its face or back (as in straight applications).
Define the orientation of the molding to the curve:
thick edge outside - which would be the usual way we would bend your design if not stated in your order otherwise
thick edge inside - in some instances your design may call for the thick edge of your molding profile to be placed to the inside of the curve.
 
bent on face - this orientation applies the same as the ISR definition, when you need to bend your molding to fit an inside radius curve.
bent on back - this orientation applies the same as the OSR definition, when you need to bend your molding to fit an outside radius curve.
Panel/Stucco Orientation

notched edge inside - to fit an application that calls for the notch or key to be placed toward the inside of the curve
notched edge outside - to fit an application that calls for the notch or key to be placed toward the outside of the curve
Definitions
Diameter - the width of a circle at the center.
Radius - the measurement from the exact center to the outside or circumference; half the diameter.
Width - the measurement of the area to be trimmed at its widest point.
Rise - the measurement from the imaginary line; from the width to the top of the curve. |
