Default Casing for door out of square

Since you have the casing off why not just shim the door back to square.
Seems faster than messing around with odd angles and still ending up with a
crooked door.

A door I'm trying to put a casing around isn't square. How best to work out
and cut the mitre angles for my top and side pieces? A large protractor, or
is there a device that fits inside interior angles (such as inside the door
frame) to measure them?



That would require a level ... grin.
