ABSTRACT:
An architectural millwork jig for the cutting of at least one cope in a strip of architectural millwork such as crown molding. The jig includes a base for stabilizing the millwork and further includes a table with a through opening positionable over the end face to be cut. A powered jig saw rides on the table about the opening, where the powered jig saw includes a foot for riding on the table and a blade reciprocating between two toes of the foot, and where the blade makes the cut in the end face of the millwork. The table is swingable about at least the x and y axes so as to provide a proper alignment for the surface of the table on which the foot of the powered jig saw rides. Swinging of the table about one axis permits one jig to be used for right hand and left hand copes and further permits the table to be adjusted to the exact angle of the right hand cope or to the exact angle of the left hand cope. Swinging about this one axis further permits the table to be swung into position to cope flat miters. Swinging of the table about another axis permits the table to be aligned relative to the slope of the bevel. A method of cutting into the end piece of the millwork is also disclosed.
