How to cut 1cm off end of Ikea wooden blinds
In article .com,
says...
I've bought a wooden blind from Ikea which is marginally too wide at
the bottom of the kitchen window as I forgot about the tiles we'd
fitted!
To trim it by approx 1cm on each side can I simply stick them together
using tape and cut using a hand saw?
Ikea have a gadget for trimming aluminium blinds but not wooden which
are about 1-2mm thick.
Tape probably won't hold the slats together firmly enough - something
like a drill vice is good if you pad the jaws with a bit of cardboard.
