Edge Banding Trimmer, Veneer/Laminate Edge Trimmer Mini Plastic PVC Plywood Melamine Wood Edge Band Cutter, Manual Trimming Woodworking Tool

This edge band trimmer cleanly cut 1/2, 3/4, 1-1/2, and 2 edge banding on plywood and poplar boards. Im trimming edging for 19 windows, all but 4 windows are 6x4, and also baseboards, door trim, and plinth blocks. It took me a little practice to figure out how to hold the double-cut trimmer to get the perfectly relieved edges I wanted. It required adjustment of the angled blades on the good side of the trim. Relieved edges take paint better than squared edges. For the 1/2 fillets and 2 plinth blocks, I separated the trimmer and trimmed one side of the board at a time. When the blades failed, it happened quickly. The blades needed changing out after around 400 feet of edging was completed. Luckily, the trimmer came with one extra set of blades. I had just replaced the blades in the photo, thus the trimmer is in two parts. I highlighted the arrows with black marker to more easily see the trimming direction and for ease of reassembling the trimmer parts. Now I need to learn how to get additional blade set replacements. I have A LOT of trim yet to be edged.

I was excited to try this but was quickly disappointed in the quality. The blades appear to be dull and it definitely didnt cut cleanly. I had to do a bit of sanding to make the finish look good.

Wasted money on this

Didnt work for me. Hard to close and sticks on release. Does seems to work if everything is perfectly lined up. Needs 2 springs, it has the slots for it. Or, maybe mine came with only one. Definitely think it would work better with 2 springs. Didnt cut all that well, so I didnt bother inquiring about another spring. Shouldve been there to start with...

Not a clean cut. I used a utility knife and a sander. The sander worked the best. To cut the end, I used flush cut pliers.

I bought this to trim melamine and wood banding. Performance was terrible, causing tear out and uneven cutting. Instead I used a sharp utility knife which worked much better. I returned the item.

Does not leave a smooth edge.
