DIYers weigh cheaper alternatives to pricey chop saws for molding cuts
Original: I don't really want to drop $$$ on a chop saw just for cutting molding and quarter round but I'm tired of plastic miter
A home DIY discussion is underway about the cost of getting clean corners when cutting molding and quarter round. One poster says buying a chop saw feels like a big expense for a small job, but cheap plastic miter boxes keep producing sloppy, inaccurate cuts. Others are weighing options like manual miter saws, hand saws with guides, or renting tools.
Why now: People are discussing affordable, accurate ways to cut trim without spending hundreds on a chop saw.
