2-in-1 Mitre Measuring Cutting Tool

It worked

Precision 💯👏🏽

The “tool” is thin plastic and the hinge is cheap, such that when you try to cut your piece of trim, the parts wobble between the provided screws that act as guided and cause you to make poor cuts. Poor tolerances and quality. No durability at all.

Kinda get what you pay for here. If your not concerned about accuracy its perfect. It has some slop when in use. At least mine does.

Good tool for small tasks

Good

"Cheap" is the operative wod, here (but that's why we bought this thing, isn't it?). I've attached two photos showing you the thing they don't show you in the product info. First of all, as another reviewer pointed out, there is no provision for fastening this thing to a workbench. It would work counter to its stated purpose to permanently fasten it down; you're supposed to use it like a protractor or angle gauge to get the desired angle, then use it as a miter box to give you an angled cut. But, OF COURSE, you can't actually cut anything in it without somehow rendering it immobile. Use a clamp? Sure. Except there are no flat surfaces to clamp to other than the narrow channel that holds your material. A flange at either end would've served this purpose nicely. Second: the other attached photo shows the underside of the jig. (The vendor was very careful not to show you this.) There are two metal tabs with interlocking gear sprockets. Why the maker thought it necessary to make the two halves move symmetrically, I don't know. Does an angle gauge have this feature? No. Because it doesn't need it. And neither does this miter box. Which would not be a problem except there is too much play between the two sprockets. There is no way to ensure that the angle you've measured will be accurately locked in by the time you're ready to do the cutting. If you're making these kinds of cuts in any material, then you're ingenious enough to make a jig that actually works. If you are (for some unfathomable reason) making angled cuts in anyhting smaller than a 2x4, but you don't need accuracy or convenience, then, sure; throw money at it.

Excellent tool for small pieces of trim, shoe molding, etc...

Inaccurate. My old fashioned miter saw does it better

Great

Even for 20 bucks it's pretty awful. Doesn't lock at all and not worth the risk of messing up your trim.

Disappointed with the accuracy when setting the angles on this device. The two 'wings' rotate together because of interlocking gears, one to each 'wing'. However, when the system has been tightened down, supposedly locking the angle, there is still enough spacing between the gear teeth to allow up to a degree or two of deflection for the mitre cut. Doesn't sound like much, but it's a lot when finishing joints in fine wood-working.

Bien fait
