Best tool for undercutting door frame?
I have some hardwood flooring to lay, and this will involve undercutting 8
door frames. I'm looking for the best tool for the job. Some web sites recommend using a 'hard back mitre hand saw' which I have, but I would prefer a power saw, since there is rather a lot of cutting to do, and on the previous occasion that I used a hand saw, the task took a long time, and caused significant subsequent back pain. ;-) There seem to be a number of items available on the internet, but most of the power tools are available in the USA only (as far as I can see) - e.g. 'door jamb power saw' and the Bosch 'fine cut power hand saw'. I did find one item http://www.bona1stopshop.co.uk/acatalog/B.html (the Bepo twist) but this was nearly £400, and would seem to be a bit over the top for my needs. I quite like the look of the Bosch fine cut power hand saw http://www.epinions.com/hmgd-Shop_To...~latest_prices because that would be useful afterwards too. However, I couldn't find it on a UK web site (at 250V). I did find this one: http://ukptocs.bosch-pt.com/boptocs-...7&prod_id=7574 the Bosch PFZ 600E All-purpose saw. Will this do the trick? Any and all suggestions gratefully received... -- John |
