1. You can export your working copy.

svn export /path/to/existing-working-copy /path/to/new-export

2. You can convert your working copy into an export by just deleting
all the .svn directories with something like this (on non-Windows OSes):

find /path/to/working-copy -name .svn -type d -print0 | xargs -0 rm -rf

Now /path/to/working-copy isn't a working copy anymore.
