I've just bought a few sets of hardwood blinds for the house and I need to cut them down. My plan is to clamp them tightly and saw them, but which saw is the best to avoid splintering the wood? |

Actually, I did this once but with softwood blinds. It was a real PITA from what I remember as I couldn't clamp them all. I think I used a hack saw.

Not a hack saw - a tennants saw.

That'll be a tenon saw then... Unless our lager company is now manufacturing hand tools... Previously..

No - I borrowed it off David Tennant. Must give it back it's still on my work bench. |
