Crown cuts on table saw

I don't have a miter saw, but do have a radial arm, table saw and band saw.
I know you hold crown moulding upside down in a miter saw, but do you hold
it "right side up" if I make a jig to cut crown on the table saw? How about
using a jig on the bandsaw? (14" Delta)
Thanks in advance.

For the life of me, I can't figure out how you're going to make crown
molding on the bandsaw, jig or no.

I would think on a table saw you would still do it upside-down, but
also "backwards". So the face would be facing away from you instead
of at you on a miter saw.

Not to interrupt your thread... I'll be watching closely, but:

I did crown moulding as one of my first projects. I have a 10" combo miter
saw.... I just made a jig that was a half square... representing the
ceiling... pushed the crown into place and cut it right side up. It turned
out ok.

So why do it upside down?
