I wish that I'd have information like this 20 years ago when I remodeled our home. But here I am remodeling the bathroom and I wanted my trim perfect and how I came to your video. Definitely following! If you had been a school teacher, you would have been my favorite! 🎉
In 38 yrs as a homeowner, you are the first person who explained coping corners in a way I completely understand! Thank you so much!
+HappyGoLucky can you cope with it?
+HappyGoLucky I just found Leah. She is one good teacher.
#Derrick Smiley What a waste of time! if you have 20 years to do your baseboard then maybe ok @renata manzo scruggs
Lady, I don't know who you are but you have a gift! That was one of the best instructional video's I have ever seen. Your delivery, explanations and demonstrations are fantastic. You are obviously very intelligent and have a superb ability to pass your knowledge to others! Thank You!
+J Mack Wow, thank you very much for the compliment!! And I'm glad you enjoyed the video. :)
I just wanted to add my comment to this video. This is the clearest explanation of coping that I've seen on youtube. Excellent work. I will check out other of your videos because this content represents real value.
Jose, Thanks, I appreciate your comment.
THE BEST demo I've seen in years. No stupid antics/music, just PRO all the way! You are FANTASTIC.
I watched four videos on cope cutting just now. Yours was the most clear, easy to follow, and confidently presented. The other videos gave good info but your video set itself apart. Thank you.
Steven Wheeler You're welcome, Steven, and thanks! :)
Also, you can also use a Dremel type tool with those little drum sanders or even a diamond disk bit to clean up and fine tune the edge. That's what I usually do. Sometimes you'll find the floor not being level is the main problem, which requires tilting the coped profile slightly to get a tight fit from top to bottom.
Best explanation of this process I've seen so far. You're a good teacher and carpenter.
thanks, Carl!
This amazing, you show how to do it and why it works..
THE CORRECT TERMS ARE GREAT..
ok.. something i haven't seen in a loong loong time.. good and proper teaching !
Good job !
NOW I get it!!! Thank you for taking the time to explain EVERYTHING and for offering multiple closeup camera angles of the coped areas. Not everyone understands all of the terms associated with woodworking, but that doesn't mean we aren't capable of doing the job......a bit of explanation is just required....thank you for doing that. Confusion with coping has prevented me from installing my baseboards for longer than I care to admit. I can't wait to watch more of your videos.
+Robyn Johnson Hi Robyn, you are very welcome, and thanks for your comments. This is exactly why we started See Jane Drill, so that people would know that making many of their own home repairs is absolutely doable, with some instruction. Glad you like the videos, and good luck with your baseboards!! :)
I watch a lot of DIY videos and by far Leah blows everyone away. A true professional knows the intricacies of the their job. You`re great at what you do!
LoadedMagnum44 thanks :)
My husband and I bought our home two years ago and we need to upgrade, we have looked at over 20 videos and no one has explained it so well as you did, AWESOME you have made us feel so confident THANKS
+pamela morris You're very welcome, Pamela, and thanks for your comments. Good luck with your project! :)
Without a doubt, the clearest, simplest instruction on how to do a coped corner I've seen yet! Excellent camera work, well narrated. Thank you.
Wayne Costigan You're welcome, Wayne, and thanks for your comments!
ah thank you are an amazing teacher, your patience and kindness makes a difference
I was a trim carpenter for a short while and that is the way I was taught to do baseboard corners. It is really easy to do and always makes nice joins! Well done!
thanks, Joel!
Thank you Leah, I've tried this a couple of times but never really understood the part about back cutting until you showed it. My uncle was going to teach me how to cope joints but he died suddenly and I never had a chance to learn. Your presentation was the best I've ever seen. THANK YOU!
you're very welcome, Jack, I'm glad it was helpful!
Leah, your video's are a breath of fresh air in a stale environment. You teach at the ground level but what you teach can help anyone at any level. Thanks for your encouraging tone and generous sharing from your obvious skill. You, lady, are a craftsman. Ignore the "Comment Commando's" who neither know nor teach, much less practice. Thanks.
Thanks Tyler.....I really appreciate your comment.
I love your Channel!! I placed shut off valves under my kitchen sink and I was so confident after watching your instructions on it.. This weekend I will be doing baseboards. Thank you for saving me tons of money by DIY 😁
Chelly #310 You're very welcome, Chelly! Glad to be of help. :)
What a clear, well-explained video. From your voice (upbeat and infletcive) to the image (focused and close-up) this video really helps explain the magic of coped corners. Thanks!
+Todd Duren you're welcome, Todd, and thanks very much for your positive comments!
I've been working on this project and searching for videos to help with trimming baseboards etc and you have the best video by far! Love how you explained everything.
+patricia Gianni Thanks, Patricia!
I learned this maybe 40 years ago because someone took the trouble to show me. Very pleased to see the old skills being passed along. Very clearly explained. Well presented.
Thanks Phil. I appreciate the comment.
I'm in the process of placing crown molding in my den. I admit I have a lot more to learn, but your teaching makes it all seem easy. Thank you.
This video alone was enough to make me subscribe!! I've done this procedure for years.....but couldn't explain it as eloquently as you have.......terrific job!
+Charlie Rudd Thanks, Charlie, I appreciate your kind comments!
Hi Leah and thanks for posting this great video. Many skilled tradespeople know this technique, yet you have presented it in a very clear, concise manner. I especially appreciate the backstory you've provided regarding why these corners are not square. Kudos.
+mittsdad thanks!!
You are amazing. You know so much and I find your techniques very simple to follow. Been doing light construction for 26-years and I am still teachable. Thanks again for another great video.
You're welcome, Rudolph, and thanks so much for your kind compliment!
I am so glad I found your videos, I am 9 months pregnant, love to fix and do things on my own, and recently routed my own baseboards for my baby's room. I used your method for installation and it came out perfectly! Thank you so much for your videos, you explain things clearly and it really is easy to understand.
Heidi B. Hi Heidi, glad to hear that you did it! Congrats on your new impending arrival...:)
I like her keep-it-simple instructions and encouragement. As a female home owner who took Home Ec in school and not Shop, I appreciate the easy step-by-step instructions to learn "man;s work."
Thank you for commenting
Thank you so much, I just finished my basement, Installing drywall, insulation and spackle, It wasn't my first time working with these materials but your video help give it the professional finish it needed. It looks great and I saved 2,900, I had always caulked the corners which in different seasons would pull away and look terrible. Your video helped me so much. Floor moldings look professional. Its so nice to see a women journeymen posting these kind of video's, I could use a video, ceiling moldings and one for a mantel. thanks again
+Kim Wade Lemmo Fantastic, Kim, glad to hear you did it and everything worked out!!
+seejanedrill New Bypass out Guys !!!, The software from unlockicloud24 .com is so easy to use to get your icloud accounts disabled !!. Use it now !
Hi. I discovered your channel a few weeks ago. I have to say I am blown away by how you explain things.....very easy to understand. And not just the how, but the why also. I have never really understood the coping method but now I do....you have such an incredible way about you. You have so much patience to explain these things that really do make THE JOB HAVE PROFESSIONAL RESULTS!! Thanks for all you do.
+Texmaniac you're very welcome, and thanks for commenting!
Excellent. I've referred you my sister in law to your channel. She is just getting into minor home improvements. You are an excellent teacher.
Doc
+William Branham thanks, Doc!
Amazing and informational, most pros don't even know/bother to cope corners, and they may be able to disguise the imperfections at first, and it may last a while, but eventually, it'll show. Great job!!
Oh how I needed you about 5 years ago when I was helping my then lady friend to build her house. This problem really drove me lunie. She and I have since broken up but now I know.
Thanks much!!!
you're welcome! Maybe you'll get to use it in the future.
seejanedrill
You took the time necessary to explain how to do it right, I've done this many, many times and you were spot on. Thanks for showing people step by step so they have the confidence to try it themselves. Well done.
+MrSpicoli21 Thank you very much, I appreciate your kind comments!
I've watched several of your video's.. and I just wanted to take the time to thank you for all of your good work in teaching us tips and tricks. You're really a smart lady and you're doing an excellent service with your video's. In fact, like a good book a piece of art or some music that lingers after the artist has passed on... I think your video's will too. They are truly helpful. All the best to you!
thank you so much, that is very nice of you to say!
I've seen a lot of these coping tut's on the web, this one was by far the best and most informative.
currently in a carpentry course in our local community college, you videos are extremely helpful to me. thanks so much for making such well put together videos
This wad the best coping demonstration I've seen. Delivery was perfect and camara angles helped tremendously. Many thanks for your diligence and for taking time to show us "newbs" your technique.
+Charles Hollingsworth wow, thanks Charles, I appreciate it!
Currently getting a house ready to move into and your vid on hanging doors, this one, and plastering have been revelations. Thank you so much for making these vids. You are an amazing teacher.
The Yellow Peril You're welcome, and thanks for the compliment! I'm glad the videos were helpful to you.
Thank you! I'm already on information over load with redoing my kitchen.
You made my life a little easier!
you're very welcome, glad to be of help!
Love it Leah! I've always had a tough time with that coping, especially at the top point. You explain it more simply emphasizing, "Take your time!" Always been a slow starter. Then once I get it down, I excel! Thanks Teacher!
+Thomas Kalinoski You're welcome, Thomas!
I've watched a few videos on coping, but this by far was the best because she fully explains not just how to do it, but why you do each step the way you do. I like the idea of marking with a pencil too as my eyes are not quite what they used to be!
+Deb Statz thanks, Deb, glad it was helpful!
I've seen a handful of these coping videos. This is by far the most concise one I've seen. A perfect video for DIYers.
+Brian Hackett thanks, Brian, I appreciate the compliment!
You explain everything so well it's like I have a personal instructor! It's great to see a female with so much knowledge and experience! Keep up the good work.
+Susan Riddle Thank you, Susan! :)
Thank you so much!!!! I putting baseboard down in my bathroom and foyer and I really appreciated the detailed visual instruction and seeing a woman do it!!!!
My pleasure!
Great video - I've always been afraid to do coping cuts but this video really laid it out in a non-intimidating fashion.
everytime I watch one of your videos I learn something , thank you for explaining things to all of us who are not exactly pro's at this stuff .
Somehow I just wondered into your channel but I'm glad I did because now I watch you all the time , keep em coming , thanx
+bosco358 thanks, bosco, glad you found us! :)
Leah, I really enjoy your tutorials. I built a new partition wall myself in my house using lots of tips I learned from your channel. As you can tell I am towards the end (just putting the trim up). It looks great. Thank you!
you're welcome, and thanks!
See Lia cope! I love this channel! I'm tackling the powder room while my husband is out-of-town. This is exactly what I need to do with the baseboard. Thank you, Lia. You are AWESOME! I wish you were my neighbor...
you're very welcome, Marcela! Good luck with your project!
Thank you so much for your video, Leah! I wish I had seen a couple of years ago while installing trim in my living room, kitchen and laundry room, ugh (lots of caulking). I will definitely be using this technique with the rest of the house! You really do have the heart of a teacher! Many thanks!
you're welcome, Laurel, and thanks for your comments!
As someone that just bought a very old house (1886), I will be watching tons of your videos. Thank you for being a wood shop teacher to this 52 year old guy. Love your videos.
+Mat O'Keefe you're very welcome, Mat, and thanks for your comments! :)
I wish I would have seen this video last week when I was helping my friend do the same thing. I'm going to remember that for the next project. Thank you.
When I teach (I'm an RN BTW) I use similar methods to yours, which people really appreciate. You offer the best tutorials and I always go to you for answers. My question???? How do we keep the potty mouthed "trolls" from invading legitimate video comment realms when all the producer wants to do is enhance the results of our projects? I don't get it!?!?! Blesses be Leah - another job well done!
+Jan Filbeck You could always go to your channel Settings and make it to where your comments go through a process of approval, meaning, you accept the ones that are positive, its also a great way to filter Spam :)
+Jan Filbeck Free speech has a price and if you don't want neg. comments ignore them. The expression don't feed the trolls is an expression for a reason. We don't need more censorship on the net or anywhere else. People that really want the information you are providing will appreciate it and the trolls will be trolls.
+staggerlee14760 There's no such thing as "free speech" on a web site or a video comment thread. Yeah, someone is free to post anything they want, but the moderator is just as free to delete it. Some people seem to think that "free speech" means freedom from any negative consequences of what they say, or that it overrides someone else's freedom to not listen to it, or to not include it in their video comment thread. Do you really think web site moderators aren't free to filter comments?
The point I'm making (maybe not as well as I'd hope) is there is trolls and you or any moderator will not stop it without disabling comments entirely so I would just say to ignore them would be the best way. "Do you really think web site moderators aren't free to filter comments?" It depends on the the intent of the web site. If you want to preach to the choirs then by all means censor it but don't think you will have an open debate that way.
+Jan Filbeck thank you! For real ppl get so sensitive. Everyone is going to have "their way" . I am pretty sure she doesn't put these vids out there for the pros but for DIYers...if you are a pro and watching her videos, you are learning, if you think you have a better way to do it then why are you watching anyway? Jeez. This angers me because its not just in carpentry or whatever..its in every single genre of things. I have a parrot and If I watch videos , then you have ppl that raise parrots for their entire lives doing the same thing on these comments...getting mad and arguing. LIVE AND LET LIVE...sheesh
Nicely done!!! i used your tutorial and finished two corners perfectly on my old house!!! I appreciate your advice and using tools that are not expensive...Thank you!!!
+elmmeadow10 That's great...way to go!
I an using natural hickory baseboards with no room to use caulk to cheat and this video really helped. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your videos. As a homeowner with limited skills when it comes to renos, your vids give me hope and inspiration. thanks again. C.
+ChillerKane you're very welcome, I'm glad to be of help!
I really like the way you present the information. I feel like a friend is teaching me. Thank you.
I'm a 60 year old single mother of a teen and you have helped me so much. You make it so clear and easy to understand. I watched your video on how to install a toilet and my son and I got it right the first time because of you. Thanks for your excellent videos.
you're very welcome! I'm glad to be of help.
You are amazing!!!! I LOVE all your videos. So easy to follow and build me with confidence. Thank you. You have saved me thousands by giving me the knowledge and courage to DIY!
Trisha Solyn You're welcome, Trisha, and thank you! I'm glad to be of help.:)
I love simple 1/4" x 4-6" rectangular baseboards.
They have clean lines and are easy for anyone to install.
I love your videos. We moved into a new house and I have a ton of baseboard to install and was hesitant about it. I needed some confidence about doing the corners before I started and now I know I can do it. I've just discovered your videos and love them. Thanks!
Ashleigh Bernero You're very welcome, Ashleigh, and congratulations on your new house!
As always, remarkably clear, encouraging and concise. I feel so much better about cutting my baseboards now. Thank you Leah!!!!!! You rock!
:)
Thank you, Jane. That was an incredible revelation.
I have four, count 'em, four coping saws, use them from time to time, but I never figured that out.
Wow! Again, thanks.
+Bruce Dobson you're very welcome, Bruce. Thanks for commenting!
Man she's good, really help me out....darn thing are hard to do sometimes...she basically gave me the solution I needed. Thank you Leah...your
are the best
Ruth Sylvia Talulah Morell You're welcome, Ruth, and thank you! :)
Excellent!! This is exactly what I was looking for to put in my base board. Thank you so much Jane for sharing your expertise, knowledge and skill.
you're very welcome, Shelly!
I've had coping explained to me at least 10 times, and you've made it extremely clear.
I am new to this and will be giving it a go in three rooms in my house. Never done it before but I know it will turn out great. Thanks for the great instruction Leah.
you have a teacher's heart and it really comes through in your vids, thx.
you're welcome, and thanks!
She's teaching us coping skills
You helped me with my job big time!! I went in coping corners like a pro!! Thank you so much for explaining this so good and making it easy to understand
you're very welcome, and congrats on getting it done!
Well done. I learned that trick some 35 years ago by an older gentleman who worked for me at the time. It is a very clever technique.
Jane, you are a sweetheart. I just wish I'd discovered you about four projects ago. You could have saved me a lot of aggravation, and prevented my grandson from learning some "new words"!
+Lee Fowble :) Thanks, Lee!
THANK YOU I have such a hard time trying to cut those corners like that. I had no idea just how easy it can be and why you do the back cut like that. This video has really helped me.
+Jesse LL you're welcome, Jesse, and I'm glad the vid was helpful!
I watched about 5 or 6 vids about coping cuts and you have a knack for teaching and demonstrating... by far the best! cheers...
+Jake Robinson thanks, Jake!
When I first started trying to install molding in old houses I was re-habbing, I created more pre-primed white kindling wood at $3.00/foot than any person on earth.
Coping really works and is actually easy to do. Your video shows the process in realtime which is really helpful.
LOL thanks!
I love this and your whole channel! Your teaching style gives me confidence and inspires me to finally tackle some of the projects I've been putting off for years. Please be my Cool Aunt!
:)
Thank you so much for this! I've been watching hours of videos since coming accross the concept and noone has actually explained what backsawing is ect!
I've used coping before, but never knew about cutting the 45 first to expose the proper outline. Thanks for the time saving tip! Nice job on the explanation as well, you're a good teacher...
thanks so much, Paul, I appreciate your comments!
Ive had this Problem for years...I watched this Video About a year ago,& I have Never had a Problem since...Great Advice "Trick"..."Thank You Jane...
+daniel mcvey52ford you're welcome, Daniel, glad it was helpful! :)
Wonderful video, Leah! I love the "old school" stuff like I learned back in the '50s and '60s! Thanks!
you're welcome, and thanks!
Thanks for such a clear description of how to cope. ; ) I've seen a few other tricks for coping but your patient and gentle way with your viewers rivals the great Norm Abrams in my book!
Leah, (sp) you are awesomeness! Because of your thorough instruction I feel equipped and ready to go do my own baseboards. You explained everything that has kept me fearful of even trying trim work. Thank you so much and I am a new subscriber of yours! Respect!
+Steve Stanley Thank you, Steve. I really appreciate your comments, and am glad I was able to help. :)
I keep coming back to Leah's tips and tricks...incredible stuff...you need a show on DIY
+clinroatan thank you!
Wow, I have now watched like 10 of the videos teaching coping . . . and I have to say, thank you. I wish I had found yours sooner. Thanks for not just providing footage of nearly impossible to see cutting (in the numerous other videos), but taking the time to explain the reasoning and objectives more clearly. I was beginning to come to the conclusion after watching so many other videos that failed to give sufficient information, video footage and explanation . . . that I'd need a different type of coping skills to deal with my frustration.
:) you're very welcome, Chris, glad to be of help.
Leah you've become a go to channel since I started re-modeling my home! Thanks soo much for the time and effort.
you're welcome, Kyle!
best video ive seen for teaching how to cut molding with a coping saw! thank you so much!
ka petrey you're welcome! :)
I was replacing the Baseboard in my finished basement, (Actually repairing the previous owners mistakes.
not many square corners), I have a compound miter saw, but I was wasting material trying to get the angles right.
Thanks to Leah, the joints matched up great, very little caulking needed.
you're welcome, glad everything turned out well!
WOW. That was such a simple technique and yet gave such beautiful and professional result! Thank you.
+I Cooley you're very welcome, glad you liked it!
Your advice is so sound! Always wondered about that kind of corner, how to make it work perfectly. Pardon the pun but you nailed it!
+fun2cook :)
Wow this is so easy! Shame I had to battle on my own to get it kind of right. No comparison to your work. You deserve two thumbs up! Thank you for teaching!
Blessings
So glad to have found you! I'm tackling some updating of my bathrooms and you are covering exactly what I need! Thank you.
Pax Runs You're welcome, Pax!
I've always hated the gaps the builders left in my baseboard corners. Thanks to your video I now know how to do it right when I change my kitchen floor. Thanks for posting this video and the details you've included.
you're welcome, Steve, glad to be of help!
Your a very gifted and patient teacher..... You know,.. Like the 2 maybe 3 teachers you experience between k-12 that have a certain way about them that everything they say , your mind can absorb without. Even really trying or meaning too..... Keep doin doin
And the difference you'll make in your lifetime will be legendary!
Jack F thanks Jack, that is very kind of you to say. :)
Thanks so much for this video. I don't own a miter saw but I do have a coping saw and am anxious to try this method. I've used square blocks in corners in the past so that I wouldn't have to miter the corners since they are so hard to get perfect. Thank you for taking the time to show us how to do this!
+Linda18323 you're very welcome, glad it was helpful!
Lea you rock! I'll be doing this tomorrow on my new baseboards! Thanks for sharing your talent and knowledge with the rest of us.
+Dede Warren thanks, Dede, and good luck with your project!
Beautifully explained Jane. I finally understand back cutting now. Thanks for sharing.
+shutinyanks you're very welcome, glad it was helpful!
I agree with the previous comments. You are a great teacher Leah and explain things so well. Thank you.
+Anna Fishel you're welcome, Anna, and thanks!
After the first of the year I will be finishing the guest room and will need to do baseboards, this is going to make it so easy for me. Thank you so much for this great tutorial.
+marjs29 you're very welcome! Glad it was helpful. :)
i LOVE LOOKING AT YOUR VIDEO'S B/C YOU MAKE THINGS SEEM SO EASY AND YOUR IDEAS ARE INTERESTING AND MOST OF ALL HELPFUL. THANKS LEAH, KEEP IT COMING
you're welcome, Carmen, and thanks for commenting!
I'm trying my hand at some home renovations and this is an exellent tip. You just got youself another subscriber. Thanks!
+Mike B N TN you're very welcome, and thanks!
This is awesome. I have zero skill when it comes to building, but I have to put baseboards in my house in the next couple of days. This video is slow and explains things in a way I can easily understand. I have a lot more confidence at the upcoming job. Thanks.
bugdude0 You're welcome, bugdude! I'm glad to be of help.
bugdude0 Best of all you don't need a bunch of fancy tools to do it. Even a cheap hand operated miter saw will do these cuts, then simply get a coping saw (they aren't very expensive) you can also use a jigsaw if you are careful with it. These really aren't hard to install, and mitering the corners at 45 degrees just saves a little time, if you don't have a miter saw and don't want to buy one doing the other method explained in the video using a pencil to trace the molding profile works really well also, just takes a bit more time but once you do a few you'll find it goes faster with practice.
Quite simply the best instruction for a coped corner I have ever seen. Thank you.
Jeanne Dalton Justice you're very welcome, Jeanne!
Great job, Jane.
I had a hard time installing a baseboard once. Never did one again. I feel braver, now. to tackle one now that i've seen this.
Thanks
+robbiedaug you're welcome, Robbie, glad to be of help!
