The Art of Coping Corners

We are often asked 'Why cope corners'? Is it mandatory? Well, yes and no.

So getting two miters to meet tight and right is challenging or impossible. And even if you get it tight, it will probably open as wood naturally shrinks or swells.

Coped corners take these elements out of play.
