Coping is effortless if youv'e got $2,300 to spend on new machine

There's no excuse now for professionals NOT to cope, unless they can't earn enough money to buy new equipment. There is a shiny new machine called the Copemaster.

Just wondering, are you referring to coping trim on the job?

yup! It's in Fine Homebuilding (oct - nov), page 36

Wouldn't it be cheaper to just make a pattern jig and use one of those nifty rotary saws or a router? If I'm going to drop a few grand on a machine, it's going to do more than a little coping. Of course, if I drop three grand on a coping machine, I'll also have to cope with my SWMBO explaining the finer points of the budget.

this tool is for pro's. I'm not in the business of finish carpentry. I can do some, but I don't make a living at it. I wouldn't buy one myself. I was trying to bring this tool to the attention of the Wreck. Did I not make it clear it's for professionals??? Pro's don't need to worry about what SWMBO thinks of their hobby expenditures, by definition...

You can do your hobby coping with a frickin' X-acto knife...
