When you cut, the bevel of the blade (like the chip-breaker on a plane) tries to push the shaving away from the surface at a fairly radical angle. One of two things will happen. The grain can break at or shortly in front of the edge of the blade, the shaving will curl, and you'll get a clean cut. Or the grain will resist breaking, causing cracking well ahead of the blade edge, and you get a ragged cut and tear-out. Grain resistance is related to both grain direction (if it is sloping out, there is little resistance) and thickness (or in the case of a trimmer like this, width) of the cut: fine cuts minimize tear-out.
I pulled the trimmer apart and on the 'bottom' of each side, I stuck pieces of UHMW tape (about 1/64" thick) on the little bits of plastic to each side of the horns of the blade that normally bear on the front and back faces of the stock you are banding. I left the 'top' of each side (on the other side of the posts) as it was. After re-assembling the trimmer, I make two cuts to trim the banding. The first is with the trimmer right side up, with the added tape bearing on the stock. This holds the blades a bit away from the faces of the stock, hogging off most of the material, leaving the banding with 1/64" overhang on each side. There is tear-our on the downhill grain side, but this tear-out is confined to the overhang. For the second cut, I turn the trimmer over, so that the blades are now snug to the faces of the stock. The remaining overhang is narrow enough that the grain easily fractures, the shaving curls tightly, and the resulting edge is quite clean. If any additional clean-up is needed, I'll take a pass or two with a finely adjusted block plane.
As always, the blades benefit from honing. I flattened and polished the backs of the blades on a succession of waterstones and honed the bevels with sandpaper wrapped around a bamboo skewer. Carbide blades are much more difficult to sharpen and typically come from the manufacturer less sharp than carbon steel blades. If you are trimming abrasive materials, carbide blades will hold up much longer, but they will produce a poorer quality edge.
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2023
It works flawlessly! Although I added a few steps to help it.
1. I used a round scrap metal piece to press the banding down while it was still warm so that it would force the glue into the plywood edge.
2. I installed the banding 1 side justified. Meaning it hugs one edge so that the left over side over hangs. That way I'm only trimming one side with this tool!
No break or chipping happened.
This WILL NOT navigate around corners, or rounded areas. It will also NOT cut flush to the edge of your work area. I used a razor knife to finish those areas. See photos.
I'm very pleased with this tool and recommend it with use of commonsense!
