A one in a million shot! It is good for people to speculate about getting something close, or making something close, or modifying something close, as they simply don't understand what it takes to make a really good joint in molding.

You're right, it's rare that you get that lucky.

On that job above, and as the new stuff was ever so slightly different
(your aforementioned sharpened cutter heads in action), I carefully
saved the old crown and used enough of it to cope to the inside butt on
the adjacent walls that still had the existing old crown

Used the old stuff all the way to first outside corner miter; where I
transitioned to the new stuff, and it was off to the races.

Just a couple of gentle swipes at that outside corner joint with a file
made the new crown perfectly match the old.
