Does anyone make a coping sled that allows one to cope at an angle? Not just at a right angle?

I get to do that with the chop saw from time. The coping is still done by hand with the coping saw. I have often thought that a good over arm scroll saw would be a nice thing to bring to the job when trimming houses. Most trim installers do not bother coping these days.

I'm sorry. I was not clear. I meant coping a rail for raised panel construction. I recently made a chest with angles in the raised panel framing. I spent way too much time coping the angle ends on the router table. Just looking for a simpler way.501832501832

I see said the blind man as he took up his hammer and saw... 90 degrees only for me so far, on the router table with a fence and miter gauge. The old shaper did not have a slot but we created nice push blocks for the copes. All of them are 90 degrees as well.
