    I use a makita chop saw fitted with a 58 tooth 250mm blade. I just give it its time to go through and get super clean cut.

    I bought a dewAlt dw707 back in 2003 still going strong to this day use a fine tooth non ferrous blade for noseing only changed it once and it's cut thousands of noseings and trims. Was going to buy a cheap one but bit the bullit and spent a bit more money I'm glad I did now.

    That's a great little saw and with the way the sliding mechanism works it doesn't take up much room. The reason I got it is it has a three port dust extraction system and with the DeWalt hose attachment and a vacuum there is virtually no dust off it so good to use indoors. http://toolsandpartsdirect.co.uk/Ac...-Dust-Extraction-Kit__p-289-374-414-6230.aspx
