I've seen the collen's coping foot you attach to a jigsaw. Check it out it's interesting on coping.

@inbetweentheday Interesting, looks a bit dangerous for the novice or beginner. There is a table mount guide that looks a bit safer not as fast thou.+++Bob

this shit makes no sense, i did a lot of base, and this is not how u do it, but if u want to spend 10 years to do one house of base this vid is for u.

[HomeRemodelWorkshop]

@hellriserpl1 Ok I'll bite. If you could leave us a brief explanation on the far quicker and quality improved method I am sure we would all love to hear it. If you could leave the colorful language out it would be appreciated since we don't know who may be reading these comments Thanks+++Bob

After you make the straight cut hold the base firm remove the pc up to where the cut ends, then drop the running blade back down to where you stopped and begine to SLOWLEY slide the base to the left and very gently lower the saw as the base moves and follow the profile. No need for a cope saw, just touch up a little with a rasp. Been doing this for years. Takes a steady hand and good eye correlation.

I would love to see that,do you have a video of that on your channel?+++Bob

[gahanwilson]

I always learn something from your videos. Keep up the good work!

They all look square after a 6 pack : )

Thanks

thanks for the tip,,,,,, but seems like you, and understand you have done it a lot more than i, but it took you 20 seconds to do it by hand with hand tools, at least make it look a little harder to do by hand, ie. reason to run to the miter saw,

[ILuffYewwChris123]

Good luck with a jigsaw on pre finished wood. And the "unless you wanna take forever on a house this video is for you" Guy is a perfect example of the get it done fast, quality doesn't count mentality of our industry. Still haven't met anyone who uses a jigsaw or an angle grinder (WTF?) Who's copes turn out as good as with a coping saw and a back cut. Keep it up Bob. Show em the right way....let em take the shortcuts on their own.

Thanks Bob, very useful video.

@nolanbowling why?

[snakyjake1]

@fishnriver, I imagine this would work if you didn't have rounded profiles.

Hey Bob, don't worry about your critics....they tend to display their stupidity and lack of communication skills by using colorful language to draw attention. In the end they can't produce the goods to match their mouth. Keep up the great work!!
