   An alternative method, coping, is a two step process that begins with cutting a simple miter on both mating trim ends, then uses a coping saw to back-cut at least one of the miters along its profiled edge to provide relief during installation. Simplified crown installation is possible when using manufactured corner blocks, requiring only simple ...

3. Coping (joinery) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coping_(joinery)

   Coping is only ever used for internal corners. External corners are always mitred. The main reason that scribed joints are used is that timber shrinks in width far more than it does in length. By using a scribed joint rather than an internal mitre joint, the effect of shrinkage is minimised. Also it is possible to arrange the scribed joints ...

9. Wood shaper - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_shaper

   Being both larger and much more powerful than routers, shapers can cut much larger profiles than routers – such as for crown moulding and raised-panel doors – and readily drive custom-made bits fabricated with unique profiles. Shapers feature between 1.5 and 5 horsepower (1.1 and 3.7 kW) belt-driven motors, which run much more quietly and ...
