I'm working on replicating an old mullioned window, mentioned in a past post, sections are fairly big, I am making it up using laminated sections to achieve the required sizes, for context this is the end of the sections to be glued together for the jambs/head and the mullions/transom profiles, the original is on the right, in the first pic obviously!:

I need to speed up my efficiency on coping/scribing all the joints for the mullions and transom, example of what I have done so far:

I have another 6 to do on this side of the frame, which is the inside face section, and a repeat of 8 to be done on the outer face, The method so far is:- roughly mark the cope lines, bandsaw close to line then spend a while fettling and undercutting the profile to get a clean and close edge profile.

I accept the fact that it is what it is, and will be a time consuming job, but you can go blind to the obvious sometimes, and cant see the wood etc, any ideas or suggestions?
