    Default jamb saws?

    did a 32m2 polished porcelain job this week kitchen + hall + utility and downstairs toilet lots of tricky cuts they had the painters in and had all skirting doors and artichive all painted white so was not able to remove anything. So only able to trim artichive with my fein but had to leave the skirting on so time consuming work cutting up to instead of removing and fitting under skirting i would have took plaster and paint of i had tryed to remove them.thinking if i had a jamb cutter i could have trimed the skirtings and all artichive easily and saved myself a days work so im going to purchase a trimmer anyone got any ideas which is best at a resonable price around £150 is my budget cheers!

    Can't find a festool one... but some laminate guys use this one... The Natural Wood Floor Co - Magnificent wood flooring, in harmony with the environment.

    I have the Roberts one and I've used it a few times for the old 8" plus skirtings you have in old houses. You have to remember to have a level surface to run the saw on which can mean a length of ply at least 12mm thick screwed down firmly. You have to be careful as you can do a lot of damage with just one slip. The jambsaw won't go into corners either so you have some work there with a Fein. On top of this it's really messy so it's not quite as much a timesaver as it appears.
