Product Information

Full details

The Faithfull 225mm Mitre Box is an essential tool for carpenters and DIY enthusiasts who require consistent, accurate cuts for framing and joinery projects. By providing guided slots for standard angles, it significantly simplifies the process of creating precise joints; however, users should note that its fixed design limits it to specific angles and blade sizes.

FAQs

Can I use any saw with this mitre box?

It is specifically designed for use with tenon saws or backsaws that fit the width of the guide slots.

Is this suitable for large timber framing?

No, this is a 225mm mitre box intended for smaller workpieces such as picture frames, trim, and small moulding.

Does it have a way to mount to a table?

It does not have built-in mounting holes, but it is highly recommended to use G-clamps to secure it to your work surface.

Are other angles available besides 45 and 90 degrees?

No, this model is fixed to provide high precision at the standard 45 and 90-degree angles only.

What material is the mitre box made of?

The box is constructed from high-quality, durable materials with reinforced joints using both glue and screws.

Troubleshooting

The saw blade is binding in the slot.

Ensure the saw blade is clean and free of resin. Check that the blade thickness is appropriate for the mitre box slot.

Cuts are not perfectly square.

Verify that the mitre box is clamped securely to the workbench and that you are not applying lateral pressure to the saw blade while cutting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable, multi-fastened construction
  • Reliable accuracy for 45 and 90-degree angles
  • Compact and easy to store
  • Ideal for precise picture frame joints

Cons

  • Fixed angle settings only
  • Limited to smaller workpieces
  • Requires a separate tenon or backsaw

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, place the mitre box on a stable, flat work surface. It is compatible with standard tenon saws and backsaws that fit within the guide slots. For maintenance, keep the tool free of heavy sawdust buildup, which can obstruct the slots and affect angle accuracy. Wipe down with a dry cloth after use. If the plastic slots begin to show wear after years of heavy use, avoid forcing the saw blade, as this may widen the guides and reduce precision. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the structural integrity of the glued and screwed assembly.
