[edit] Reason for scribing

"when walls are not square to each other." A mitre joint can be perfectly fit to any angle, it is not restricted to exactly 45 degrees. I don't like altering other people's work but this is plainly wrong and not the reason for using scribed joints. billbeee 20:37, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

Go for your life, it's never stopped anyone in the past. And while you're at it, maybe you should look at the Scribe joinery article. You need to make the article consistent though. You've started using scribe halfway through. It either needs to use cope all the way, and acknowledge scribing at the top, or it needs to be all moved to Scribing. SilentC 23:01, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
