Anyone got any tips/secrets for cutting internal trim that is less than a 45 degree angle. I've got some trim cutters but not a huge fan, are there any other ways of measuring the angle to get it spot on?
Cheers

Angle finders and protractors work fine mate! You can then cut the trim with a manual or electric mitre saw.

Also mate, you could try to butt and scribe just as you would with skirting etc. Butt the straight side of one trim against the internal corner. Then cut a 45 mitre at one end of the other trim, use a coping saw to cut the profile of the trim and then offer this up to the straight cut trim and you will get a scribed join.

I would use butt and scribe as above or you can use a sliding bevel to
find the angle , also if you have lots of time use two scrap bits of trim
find the angle then file to the perfect fit then transfer that to the trim your using

I personally cut the trim slightly too long and at roughly the right angle and then use sand paper to fine adjust, I find that the trim cutters and mitre saws bend the trim as you are cutting and don't give you a perfect cut unless you are careful.

But the suggestions above are just as good:thumbsup:
