Virutex AU-93 Double Edge Manual Banding Trimmer and Scrapper, Quad Trimmer, Thin Edge Scrape Both Sides Simultaneously, Long Life Cutter Blades of Chromium-vanadium alloyed (51CrV4)

Does what it says. Just try to keep it smooth. If It stops on you, rather than force it because then it will cause a little damage, go back to the start and run it again. Good tool to have if you are a fan of edge band.

No es la mejor calidad, funciona pero para trabajos profesionales es mejor buscar otras alternativas

I have never written a review before, but when something is so well made I just had to share.This trimmer can be used single sided or double sided. When trimming PVC single sided works great and it enables you to trim the ends.Replacement blades are available at a very reasonable price. Some of the other brands it cost more to replace the blades than to buy a new one. There’s other options out there but none of them come close to this tool. Well Done!

easy to use with great results

Love to use edge banding on plywood, but trimming can be a pain. This tool looked perfect for my needs. Maybe I didn’t read the description good enough, but it is too wide to use on 1/2” ply. I was able to take the 2 sides apart and still use the tool to trim separately the top and bottom. So it worked, but not like it is intended. Would do more research if I bought a tool like this again. Can’t really recommend.

Works ok but be careful, there's a tendency for the blade to rip the edge banding rather than cut it.

For the TLDR peeps;- Poor build quality- Damages plywood two different ways- Go with FastCap quad trimmer and chamfer planeI've been using a FastCap quad trimmer for some time but the replacement blade seemed overly expensive compared to the quad trimmer itself. In addition to that I wanted to see what else was available to make my life easier.The Virutex appealed to me due to the addition of the "scrapers". I've had some remnants, mostly glue, left over from the quad trimmer so it sounded like maybe the scraper could clean some of that up and reduce sanding a little. In addition to that the quad trimmer uses an airtight seal between four pieces on the inside to provide the "spring back" to an open position. From the start, and much more so now, it doesn't really fully spring back. So I have to manually open it the remaining 1/8th of an inch to put it on the next board. The Virutex utilizes springs instead.Upon receipt I did some testing on scrap wood and found a few issues. The position and angle of the blades meant to trim edge banding are very poorly aligned. There is no wiggle or ability to change that either. They ride the face of the board and manage to successfully cut trim but also leave a gouged line about an 1/8th of an inch from the edge. I also found three out of four of the scraper blades will not go down far enough to touch the plywood at all. The one blade that does go down far enough to touch the workpiece leaves more of a "tearout" effect than what I was expecting. I think I incorrectly placed expectations that it would perform more like a "micro" chamfer plane for the edges. Applying a really light 1/32nd chamfer maybe. Again, my fault on those.I've tossed this unit in the trash, purchased another quad trimmer, and will be trying out a chamfer plane to see how well that does for plywood edges.
