The Rider Mitre Trimmer is a precision, shear‑cutting tool designed for fine‑tuning mitres when absolute accuracy is essential. Its razor‑sharp steel blades produce clean, controlled cuts, allowing you to take delicate shavings that bring joints together perfectly during final fitting. Because it operates manually and creates no dust, you get a clean, mess‑free finish without the need for power tools.
Built with a heavy‑duty cast iron body and fitted with durable steel blades, this trimmer offers the weight and stability required for consistent, repeatable results. The shearing action leaves an exceptionally smooth, glass‑like surface, even on end grain or softer timbers. A long operating lever, running on a rack‑and‑pinion system, ensures smooth and even cutting pressure throughout use. Each fence features adjustable cam stops at 0° and 45°, and can be locked securely at any angle in between.
The Rider Mitre Trimmer is an excellent choice for woodworkers who regularly work with mouldings, picture frames, or fine trim joinery.
It can handle stock up to 90mm high by 150mm wide at 90°, or up to 98mm wide when set to 45°. For optimal accuracy, cut your material close to size using a mitre saw or mitre box, then use the trimmer to remove light, precise shavings to achieve a flawless final fit.
