While you can perform the same tasks with a good straight edge, this tool makes it easier. Due to the variety of 90 degree profiles on this tool, keeping the tool locked (positioned) on a stile or rail while running the blade to make a cut reduces the opportunity to miscut the veneer.

We have had a tool similar in the past, []and we were unable to find something similar. We were very excited to find your product. We teach a class for our franchisees on Refacing cabinets and the Veneer Trimming Guide makes learning the process so much easier.

This trim tool is a great idea, however it is not deep enough for a true 3/4" face frame. If you attempt to use it to trim the inside of a 3/4" frame, you'll end up with a small exposed section of the orginal frame that will not be covered with the veneer.

I found the product was not as easy to use as I expected. It required more accuracy on my part than I had hoped for.
"I ordered a replacement part for a desk at home. It is actually better quality than the original and fit perfectly! I called to make sure the package had the number of parts I needed prior to placing my online order. The folks were very helpful and the part came within a few days! I will definitely use them in the future! " -
