Coping saw techniques

 I have been doing alot of trim work lately, and thought I would put up some tips on coping base trim into place. What I mean by this is to cut one piece of base trim to fit the shape of an adjacent piece, like this:



The following method works fairly well. Cut the piece to be coped on a 45...


Then, using a coping saw, cut along the face line of the 45, as shown below...

Using this method should give you a fairly close, if not exact, coped surface to join the inside corners of colonial base trim.
