Coping Crown Moulding with the RAS 115

[jeffeverde1]

Interesting to see it done this way, but using the Collins foot, I could have coped the whole profile in about the time it took you to do your relief cuts. (just finished putting up 600' of a similar 5-1/4" profile). I can see where a sander/grinder might have an edge on a profile with multiple tight radius beads, but you can't beat the Collins foot for coves and ogees.

Curious about your miter jig - are the stops adjustable for different moulding sizes, or are they fixed?

Randell,

I am glad you have have become proficient with the coping saw. Many people haven't. AT your age that is quite an accomplishment. I hope you will let me know when you post your techniques out in the public so that others can learn from you.

I can cope that by hand with a coping saw in under 10 seconds with 4 cuts

Thankyou

will a normal orbital sander do the same job?

@benny5825

An orbital sander will not. Many people use a rotary sander - i.e. a disk grinder to cope crown. The difference is dust collection. Dust collection is not common on disk sanders. The RAS 115 also has variable speed which is also uncommon on disk sanders.

Hope that this helps.
