But it's only worth $750 if he can find a buyer willing to pay not only for the press, but for the cost of moving it as well. But he's stubborn in his insistance that he will not part with the press unless I come up with $750 cash to pay him.
Crown molding is typically applied along the seams where ceiling meets wall. Usually it is not placed flush against the wall nor against the ceiling. Instead, when viewed from the molding's end (or as a cross-section), it, the ceiling, and the wall form a hollow triangle.
Base molding (or baseboard) is a type of molding, which is applied where the wall and floor meet. 9/16 x 3 1/4. Crown molding (or crowns) is a type of molding, which is applied where the wall and ceiling meet. 7/16 x 3 5/8. I think what the person was saying, was that the previous owner used casing in place of base molding.
