Same for me. Its the new mitre box designed by Deano.

Don't buy one of those blade scissors for cutting plastic trim because they squash the trim and don't make the proper degree cuts. I only use mine for cutting the trim down to size before it goes into the mitre box.

that's what I have, it worked well but seems to cut off line now. Maybe damaged it some way.

I use grinder with adjustable speed .......... does not fit?
cutting steel at low speed so it does not burn

I admit they do take a bit of getting used to, as I had the same issue when I first started using mine.

You have to go very slowly when cutting metal trim, and I would recommend changing the green blade for the orange one as it has more teeth and gives a finer cut.
Take your time, and you'll be fine.

I got these in June , very happy with them , changeable blades and feel strong and sturdy. Think Dave sells them.
