Review: Versatile and good value mitre guide, but one that needs care and forethought in use - This tool is cheap but extremely effective if you work within its obvious limitations; I am totally delighted with the results from using it on my new oak skirting. I am sure that EMIR could produce a fantastic cast steel version with readily replaceable hard nylon wear faces but that would probably cost £60 to 75; this design is reasonably usable and is a whole lot cheaper. What's great about it is that you can adjust the angles of the mitre slightly by using a little packing under or behind the piece of skirting. This suits the real world where builders and plasterers don't have any great affection for sticking to 90 degree corners. You don't get this freedom with a mitre box. I do have some tips. 1/ The instructions provided are actually useful and worth reading carefully. 2/ Clean up all sawdust after each cut really carefully because a little bit of debris throw out the angles. 3/ Put masking tape over the tuffnol wear strips and renew it before each cut, because that way your saw mostly hacks up the tape not the wear strip. Your aim should be to mark the tape and cut into it just a little. 4/ Use the thumbscrews to hold the work in place lightly while you clamp it properly with a decent g-cramp; that way they are really useful and don't chew up the particle board of the EMIR. 5/ Cut a bit of ply to fit between the thumbscrews and the work because otherwise the ends of the thumbscrews mark the work. It's too much to expect them to do all the clamping. 6/ Use a fine tooth saw with no spine like the Bahco 300-14 F15/16 14 inch toolbox handsaw; the fine teeth minimise damage to the EMIR and make it easier to align to the saw guides. 7/ Apply a gentle pressure to the far end of the saw to hold it gently against the EMIR. 8/ Support the EMIR every way you can when clamping it; I made sure it was right down in the Workmate vice and clamped a block behind it. Review: did an ok job but it was hard work - I bought this mitre because it was one of the few that would fit skirting board of 144cm. I wasn't sure how it would work since it looks different from the usual mitre box. The box has to be stood vertically and clamped. I didn't have a clamp so i placed a block of wood under the body and held it down. You have to saw through the whole width of the skirting board and it was hard to keep the cut straight and at the right angle all the way down. The job turned out ok and i'm pleased since it's the first time i've ever tried fitting skirting board. I would recommend a conventional mitre box if you can get one wide enough. Pros: wide enough to fit wider skirting boards Cons: Have to saw through the width of the board (144cm in my case). Hard to maintain the angle right to the end.
