I didn't even try to get a picture of all of the parts needed to finish this job. We installed this molding in 5 rooms. The dining room, living room, kitchen, foyer and one bedroom (other bedrooms are scheduled for remodeling later)

For those rooms we needed:
300 feet of WM 320 crown for the room perimeters

170 feet of WM 54 crown for beam sides and pendants

12 - 8 foot strips of 1/4 MDF custom machined to cover the beams

12 'beam' pendants (more on those later)

15 inside corner pendants

4 Outside corner pendants

Each of the 31 pendants is made of at least 6 separate pieces of moldings. There are over 250 (small) pieces that had to be cut, glued together and finished to make all of the pendants.

At one point I was cutting WM 54 crown pieces for returns on the pendants and figured out that I needed to cut 54 - 2 1/2 inch long pieces of crown. Can you say repetitive??

I'll kind of walk through this in the order in which we installed things and in some cases created the pieces.

The only non-standard 'molding' we used was the wide flat, bottom cover for the beams. We machined it from a 4 x 8 sheet of 1/4 inch MDF. Each piece of 'beam cover' is 4 3/8 inches wide. We routered a decorative edge on each 'beam cover' to 'make a molding' out of it. We used a 'classic groove forming' bit from MLCS to run along the edge:

All of our other moldings were pine or preprimed, we didn't have to worry as much about painting them. The MDF on the other handle swells when hit with Latex paint. so, we had to seal the MDF pieces with an oil based primer before we sanded and painted them.
