Absolutely NOT!!!!! I'm going to hand shape your crown with the BEST file I can find! That hand-filed, custom crown was going to be a Christmas present. But, you don't sound very appreciative!

I wish Mrs Jody was reading what you're typing! She'd never let you type such hurtful things!

She thinks a crown is only for kings and queens. But she does know what a file is.

The exact angle sometimes varies a degree or two from eleven and is still referred to as being a target crown but through experimentation and time eleven degrees is normally accepted as the optimum universal angle for this type of target crown.
