Cutting angled panels before or after laminating?
shmokes:
I just want to say thanks whammoed. I've got some pieces I've already cut with beveled edges and I was just wondering how I would go about trimming the laminate once applied. Unfortunately, some of my pieces have bevels that won't work with your method. Any more bright ideas?

I would imagine a lot of cabinets don't have a design that would call for laminate on an inside corner other than a 90. Maybe a few do including yours.
Sorry no other ideas other than lining up the laminate with that edge and just cut the other. See earlier post though, I really don't think this is the best method...it may be better to start over?

Is that a 1UP design?

:) Good call. They are pieces from the control panel.

laminate, then flip the board over and cut. It works perfectly...just make sure that the blade does not stick out of the wood on the other side more than 1/8"...the more the blade comes down on the material, the more likely it is to chip. We use table saws, jig saws and circular saws and we never have chips!
