Default Electric Coping Saw

Has anyone any recommendation for an electric coping saw? I saw one on TV a
month or so ago, and I haven't been able to find one anywhere.
The closest that I have found is the old Dremel Moto Saw, which looks
nothing like the one I saw on TV.
The one that I saw looked like a small Sawzall with a barrel handle and it
looked like it used a jig saw blade to cut with.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks - Matt

It's not exactly what you've described, but here's something similar.
Basically a little baby jigsaw.

Josh - That would be a little weak for what I am looking for. I will be
using it to cope 6 inch oak baseboard and other things like that. The one
you pointed out is basically for model building.
Thanks for looking.

My GAWD! That is the worst Web site I've ever seen!

Here's a coping foot that replaces the baseplate on many jigsaws.
Haven't used it myself, but there is a review or two linked on the
site.

That looks pretty good. Have you ever used one of these?
It is not what I had seen on TV, but it looks like it would be very helpful.
The price seems a little high for such a simple jig, it would be $204 US
delivered.
But it makes the whole job look easy.

Thanks Paul. That is another way of doing it. I guess there is more than one
way to address this job.
