Has anyone out there ever tried a miter guillotine? I've seen some
that range in price from $150 to over $2k. How well do they work?


I've never seen one that cut. They're really only for trimming a
whisker off things. Nice tools for picture framing, but not for quick
cuts.

For fast mitres in trim work, I prefer a hand saw and a good mitre
box. It takes minimal time to make the cut, it's the setup that needs
the effort. I can work much faster with a handsaw, because I know I
can stick my fingers into the working area without major risk.
