Make a 45 degree cut like you would for an inside corner. This will show the profile of the trim. Use a coping saw to cut down the profile. Angle the cut back a bit so that only the profile edge will meet the adjoining piece of trim.

What kind of cuts can you get on table saw?

Rip, cross, dado & "sink".Table saw cuts include rip cuts, crosscuts, miter box cuts and bevel cuts.A rip cut is a cut made parallel to the wood grain.A crosscut is generally at a fixed 90 degree angle.A miter cut involves a table saw with a miter gauge. A table saw with a miter gauge has one or two slots or grooves running from the front to the back of the table. These slots or grooves are used to position and guide the miter gauge or crosscut fence to set the miter cut at a precise angle. With this cut, the material being cut is angled versus the blade.Bevels are cut by changing the angle of the blade with respect to the surface of the wood on the table.

Use the copping saw for?

A copping saw is usually used to cut molding to the same detail as another. For example in stead of cutting a piece of base molding at a 45 degree miter in a corner, you can install one piece of base and then "cope" the other piece to the same detail. Some base board installers argue that this is a faster way of installation.
