A tool ( 10 ) for rapidly and accurately aligning corner molding ( 50 ) on an external corner ( 51 ) of a wall ( 52 A, 52 B). In one embodiment, the tool has a mainstay ( 11 ) having first and second longitudinal sections ( 12 A, 12 B) joined along a corner ( 13 ), and first and second positioning members ( 16 A, 16 B) attached to the first and second longitudinal sections, respectively. Each positioning member has a bottom surface ( 17 A, 17 B) attached to a respective longitudinal section of the mainstay, an internal side surface ( 18 A, 18 B), a top surface ( 19 A, 19 B), and preferably an angled face ( 20 A, 20 B) between the top surface and the internal side surface. When the installer pushes on the tool the tool forces the corner molding into alignment with the corner of the wall. An optional handle ( 23 ) may also be provided. The positioning members and/or the optional handle may be unitary with the mainstay.
