Case moldings: Upper edge

I finished the baseboard-level moldings about 10 days ago and have moved on to the moldings that go along the inside and outside edges of the top of the case. These are identical in profile to the baseboard moldings except they aren't as wide. The same molding will be used both along the inside and outside edge, so I ran off two identical batches.

After these are installed, I'll make a cap molding that glues down flat on top of the sandwich made by the inside molding, the case side and the outside molding. This will need to be just bit wider than the combined thickness of all three components that it covers in order to achieve an overlap and a pleasing reveal.
