A Trick for Trimming Edge Banding

Trimming the ends of edgebanding on cabinet parts, shelves and the like can be a chore. But a while back, I figured out an easy way to flush cut these overhanging ends very accurately using MicroJig’s Dado Stop.

If you do not have a Dado Stop, you can clamp a shop-made stop to the fence, just leave enough space for the overhanging banding.

I made this video some time back but for some reason it never made it to this website, so I am posting it now.
