Abstract:
1. A modular molding system, comprising: at least a first molding piece; said first molding piece including at least a forward decorative surface, a rearward attachment surface, and an alignment surface intersecting said attachment surface; said attachment surface and said alignment surface defining an acute internal angle α therebetween and a molding edge where said alignment and attachment surfaces intersect, whereby placing said molding edge along a structural edge formed by first and second structural surfaces of a structure that define an internal angle greater than α allows alignment of said molding and structural edges prior to abutment of said attachment surface to one of said two structural surfaces and creates an alignment gap between said other one of said two structural surfaces and said alignment surface; and said alignment gap being dimensioned to be filled by at least one alignment wedge piece, whereby an outer surface of said at least one alignment wedge piece and said forward decorative surface provides an appearance of a unitary molding piece extending between said first and second structural surfaces.
