I once thought that this knew concepts saw was it. My opinion changed when I became aware of this saw....... Blue spruce toolworks produces the absolute best fret saw/coping saw in the world. Hands down. Anyone unfamiliar with the tool oughta look it up and in a couple minutes I'm sure you'll agree.

Might want to put a little back bevel on that cut....nice job explaining though.

rlly good rlly loved it man

What is the advantage of doing it this way versus two 45 degree bevel cuts? Especially if you set up a shooting board to get the bevels exact. Not criticizing, just curious.

The real problem with using a miter joint on an inside corner comes from the fact that walls are rarely perfectly square once dry walled or plastered and it makes it very difficult to get a miter to match. Some will also say that the trim can shrink in thickness over time and with seasonal moisture changes and cause the miter to open up causing a gap. With a coped joint the squareness of the corner is not an issue and because the wood will not shrink in length the joint will not open up over time. Coping trim is definitely a skill worth mastering, especially if you need to install stained trim that cannot be touched up with caulk and paint.

Cping is faster than trying to fit two pieces that need to be cut to the exact length and have a tight miter that doesn't need five lbs of caulk to hide, that is if you use a jig saw with or without a coping foot. Coping you can cut a piece an 1/8 inch short and you will still have tight joints. One or three less trips down stairs to the drive way trying to trim a 1/16 so miters will fit. Coping fits virtually every time. Even a grinder with a flap sanding wheel works. Nice saw sure it has its place just not production base board installation. You would loose every job if you showed up with this. Although there was one prevailing wage job on an navel base where the safety officer thought it was dangerous to use a jig saw and didn't allow it. I don't pay worry warts much attention these days.

That cut took forever. I do hundreds of these a day in roughly 5 seconds.

LOL Kevin...... I thought the same thing... I was hoping to see it produce a faster cut, and not a sped up video. Maybe that was maple or something else harder... probably should of used pine or some mdf base as the demo. That thing I’d huge!

@@toolman101476 he is just a rookie, no back bevel while coping and I would have stopped using the coping saw at the straight cut
