Cutting metal trim. - TilersForums.com

Hi all,

I,m a give it a go diyer and at the moment up to my "best bits" in doing our bathroom as "she who must be obeyed" requires, or is that , instructs.
Anyway I just wanted to pass on my "purchase of the day", madam chose ali trim, she doesn't want to know about mitreing etc, protractor, pencil, junior hacksaw, 1/2 degree out on each, crap result.

Genesis mitre block seems to be best, £6 on line +£5 p+p, to the point, "at last I here you cry", Sainsburys Homebase Junior Hacksaw and Aluminium mitre block, block measures 40mm x 20mm Sainsburys article No. 015 708 £8.79 I would recommend changing the blade for a fine tooth one.

For some weird reason of retail logic I found it in the electrical section.

Hope this helps and sorry for my first time waffle.
