Thank you sir. Perfection for things like this is hard to find. The new method is horrible and squirting caulking in is what I see all the time. I was trained by a fella who took the time to show me this year's ago. I will keep it going for all of you as best I can. It is a skill set that you have to keep sharp by doing.
Understand all of this is great information. Being fast and profitable is another matter. People today do not respect the trades think any ape with a saw should be able to do this and don’t want to pay accordingly. Then they wonder why nobody wants to be a carpenter or mechanic or drywall , painter etc.
I like the way you present your videos however, I've never heard of a cope. So I'm trying to figure why would put that molding up on wall and ceiling? If these tutorials are for the DIY then what's a cope line. This video isn't the one to watch first and I think you need to let ppl know that. By the way I really like your video about the reciprocating saw. Thank you for all the videos cause I know you putting them out the to help
That's a very cool machine, but it takes a long time, and a lot of skill to set it up. Now I know that by using it over and over again you will become faster, but it still takes time. Another thing, I don't know exactly what the machine costs, but if you don't have a lot of moulding that needs to be coped, it will never pay for itself. Everything that machine is capable of doing can be achieved by a miter cut anyway so I guess it's really up to the guy paying for it?
I’ve done a lot of molding with what I consider great results, but I wish I had watch this video four years ago! Game changer with respect to time and certainty of the joint and initial cut. 👍
What was a slap my forehead moment for me was that crown molding is just a solid molding piece with some of material in the corner gone. Great explanation of coping. Thanks.
I just did a crown molding work as a side job just a few days ago. I never done crown molding work even though I'm a journeyman carpenter. I realized that the room I did was 2° to 3° out of square. I was cutting with miter saw, and I had to cut 47° or under cutting 43°. My next job I'll cope the corners. My crown molding work turned out nicely even though it was my first try. I never took a classroom training when I took apprenticeship training when I was taking classes under Southwest carpenters union. But I'm always learning new things from watching RU-vid tutorials. Thanks for the video. 👍 It's fun learning new things.
Some years ago I was starting a sizable trim job in Ct. which happened to be about 5 minutes from Copemasters home base. So a friend and I went and checked it out. Very nicely designed machine. Unfortunately, the large crown on the new job had a detail that made it very difficult to cope, regardless of the method. If I had seen the machine earlier in my career, I would have bought it in a heartbeat but the nature of my business was changing and I couldn't justify the purchase.
Great video! I just finished putting up Crown moulding in my kitchen. I stressed about which method to use to cope the joints. I finally decided on using the Dremel 4300 using the carbide shaping bit. With a little practice I became very proficient at using it. I was using solid white wood moulding and this bit cut through it like butter. I highly recommend this method!
This a great tool for people that like coping. In my opinion using a angle finder doing miter and using glue to every joint. Has work the best respect for people that cope but I just can’t see myself doing that ever.
WOW!!! I'M A PIPE FITTER/FABRICATOR AND THIS VIDEO HAS JUST BLOWN THE DOORS WIDE OPEN WHEN IT COMES TO DOING MITER CUTS AND OR COPES!! EVEN IN MY CRAFT. JOB WELL DONE Y'ALL !!!!!
Hello, I just finished watching your Understanding the Coped Joint video and by all standard it is very educational, to say the least. I am a DIY and during my own home improvement projects. I decided I wanted to crown mold the walls and ceiling in the open area of home to impress myself and wife. You introduced me to a lot to consider. Crown molding can be a little intimidating but after viewing your video I have a new sense of confidence, I can do this. Thank you so very much for this educational tool and please keep up the good work. I have subscribed. Cordially, RE Morgan Decatur, GA
Do you still cut a 45 degree cut to then cope if the wall is an inside corner with 135 degree corner? Or would you cut the 22.5 degree and cope that due to the 135 degree inside corner?
Hi there, thanks for your explanations! Whats the strategy: lets say I do crown in a room with 4 corners, simple. Do I fit the first length with both ends square cut? then one end coped and one end square. That leaves the last one with 2 coped ends!? How do you achieve best results there? How / where do you measure? Cheers
I use a Hitachi 8 1/2 sliding compound saw which I mastered on the angles. I like to cut my crown flat when I mitre my corners. By making a perfect 90 degree inside corner a 1’ long each way, glue them with CA glue, and do a dry fit. This way I can mark the ceiling projection in place without drywall finishes changing my angles. I snap lines on the ceiling, apply dabs of adhesive (usually PL Premium) behind it about a 1/4”. Attach my crown along the line first, then fit the wall last. People tend to sight that line for quality
