Default Are there any tools to help cope crown molding?

What if a normal wall/ceiling wraps around a corner and joins to a cathedral

Cathedral ceiling wall would have top of crown at its pitch and then when
getting to the corner you have join to that pitch with a regular 90 degree
except that your run is the pitch of the ceiling.

Does all that make sense? It's a breakfast nook with regular ceiling
abutting a cathedral ceiling room.

Tom - Probably cannot be done cleanly.
Sound similar to running Crown down the rake of say a 12 pitch roof
and then trying to join it with the level Crown that goes along the
Fascia. The angle canot be split properly because the length of the
Crown on the angle is longer than the length of the angle of the crown
on the level.
