<div>Cool idea. I really need to investigate getting a small 3-d printer.
My concern is that then I will want a bigger and bigger one to do really large
stuff on.</div>

<div dir="ltr">Anyone who has put up cove molding knows what a pain it can be,
especially if you are putting it up by yourself.
<div><br></div>
<div>I made this little jig to help me put it up, and then printed it on my 3D
printer. 30 minutes later and I had a pair of them. I found that you really
need at least 4 of them.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The idea is that you put a nail in the wall about an inch below the
ceiling, and then hang this jig from the nail. Use two or three per piece of
molding. The cove molding then rests on the jig in the approximate position.
All that's left is for you to nail the molding in place. As you get close to
the clip, you slide it off, leaving the nail behind.</div>

<div>STL file is attached if you want to print it yourself. </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>This isn't my idea. These are commercially available at 4 for $6. It was
faster for me to draw them in sketchup and print them out vs. running into
town to buy them. Of course, it's only about 10 cents in plastic.</div>
