I am making crown molding and need some ideas on cutting the 52 and 38 degree angles without buying the special router bit. I know I can cut the 38 on the table saw, but I have right tilting and was trying to figure a different way. And help would be greatly appreciated

I am confused, are you refering to making the moulding, or cutting the mitres? I started to right on how to cut them... then I realized that even a monkey can figure that one out... lol

Put your fence on the left side of your blade. Tilt the blabe to 38 degrees. Run your board on the face to get your 38 degree edge. Next run your board on the uncut edge with the front face against the fence. You may need to clamp a taller sacrificial fence to to stock fence.
