This is how you cut wooden corner strips with a miter

1. If you want to miter wood and other angle strips, you will need a miter box. This is the name given to an approximately 20 cm long wooden profile - about 12 mm thick - that consists of a base part with a width of approx. 7 cm, which is flanked at right angles by two boards of the same thickness with a width of about 6 cm. Viewed from the short sides, the miter box is U-shaped.
2. The task of the miter box is to insert an angular strip lengthways and then cut it with a saw - using cuts already made on the two vertical sides (diagonally opposite) - saw exactly to the miter can. It is particularly important to ensure that the angle bar is easily fixed and that the saw is guided precisely in the specified slots on the outer walls of the miter box.

3. Measure the exact length of the angle strips. Mark the end of the angled strip so precisely that the next angled strip touches it exactly, because no joint should be discernible between the angled strips either. Also stop the angle bar to mark the mark with a pencil.

4. Place the angle strip in the miter drawer and use the wood saw to cut off the excess length along the miter.
