Proman Clamp - Complete Unit
|
|
 |
Code #10118 An additional material clamp made to fit the Nobex saw. The Saw unit comes with one complete clamp, but two housings so that the one clamp can be moved from side to side. This Complete Clamp unit allows you to fit a clamp to either side of your saw table.
Note...before you purchase the additional clamp we would recommend that a measuring system be a priority.....many open corners are not due to the material moving or miss-cuts...they are actually due to the two pieces NOT BEING EXACTLY the same length. A measuring system gives you accurate sides each time and this is the most important part in picture framing.

Mitre Trimmer / Moulding Guillotine
|
|
 |
Code #12000 Mitre Trimmer used to shave off a thin piece of the timber to ensure an accurate 45° cut. Ideal for trimming, squaring and other cutting jobs in the workshop. The trimmer increases your skills and greatly reduces the time and cost to produce quality picture frames.
Remember, this is only a trimmer, so all the pieces have to be cut first to a length slightly longer than the desired size...the extra is trimmed off for an accurate clean mitre.

Mitre Trimmer Measuring System
|
|
 |
Code #12010
Measuring System to add to your Mitre Trimmer Guillotine to ensure accurate frame cutting.
The Mitre Trimmer Measuring System features a Micro Adjustment Screw which allows you to move the moulding into the blade by small, even amounts giving you smooth even shaves each time. It is therefore easier to accurately cut each piece to the length required. The procedure is as follows.
Cut your frame into 4 sides in the normal manner. Cut each side longer than required, then trim one end in the Mitre Trimmer Guillotine. Place each side onto the measuring table, and set the actual length required using the Measuring Stop. Using the Micro Adjustment Screw, small, even shaves can be taken off each length to achieve accurate frame sides. 
The Measuring System available with the Proman Saw cannot be used with the Mitre Trimmer because the scales are set in different positions for each cutting device. Therefore 2 measuring systems are required - one for the saw and one for the mitre trimmer.
