copying

Does anyone know of a way to copy files with Paperclip using S3 for storage? Before I try to write my own, I just wanted to make sure there wasn't already a way to do this. Speaking of copying, is there an easier way of copying a whole model including all of its has_many relationships? Sorry for the second question but it kind of fits! :) Thanks
