Default how to cut quarter round to meet in 3 right axes

If you can't get the pieces to cope well you might consider
setting a "plinth" in the corner. Cut a custom square block
slightly taller than your base trim. Each mold can then be square
cut to meet the block.

You know when you see the representation of the x, y, z axes for
Cartesian co-ordinate system. You can make the symbol with your
fingers, like you're at a heavy metal concert. I need to make
quarter round meet on the inside of a closet. The trim goes up
the inside laying vertically on the 90° corners, and the same
trim also meets going laying horizontally both left to right and
front to back. To trim out the top square of whiteboard, which
is the ceiling of the closet, and the peg board, the three
sides. I know how to cut a 90° corner from the same trim to do
the back of a closet, but how to put a third piece "normal" to
those. Can you cut all 3 at an equal angle, or do you have to
cope one(s) into the other(s)?

p.s. The quarter round isn't just plain quarter round. I made
my own. I took a 3/8" beading bit to 1/2" x 1/2" plain quarter
round, for a little more class. Leaves a 1/16" lip. More or
less the same idea.
