ABSTRACT:
A powered coping and profile cutting and/or sanding apparatus is able to impart any shape to the surface of a body of material (17) at any angle, simple or compound, relative to the body of material. The apparatus comprises a reciprocating "frame"(36) encasing thin stacking metal sheets (42) which are adjustable in a forward/backward direction for allowing multiple shape setups. The sheets (42), which are oriented vertically, have saw teeth at their top sections (42a) and no teeth at their bottom sections (42b). Adhesive-backed sandpaper (78) is affixed to the bottom section (42b) after the shape is set. This allows a cutting phase and a sanding phase with the same profile. The entire reciprocating frame (36) pivots multidirectionally within two planes, and may be locked at any angle. The reciprocating frame (36) is movable in a forward/backward direction. The body of material (17) being cut is immovably clamped, and the frame (36) is moved into the body of material (17) for the cutting and/or sanding operation.
