Abstract
The apparatus disclosed is for cutting elongated material, such as molding, at any desired angle to its longitudinal axis selected from a group of angles available for forming miter joints and the like. The apparatus includes two members that are connected intermediate their ends in side-by-side relationship for relative pivotal, scissor type, movement around a common axis. Portions of the members on one side of the pivotal axis provide jaws and the portions on the other side provide handles for moving the jaws toward and away from each other. One of the jaws carries a cutting edge. A base plate is mounted on the other jaw for pivotal movement around an axis parallel to the direction of movement of the jaws. A stop plate is attached to the base plate to provide a guide to engage the material to be cut and to position it on the plate. An index is provided to indicate the position of the base and stop plate relative to the line of cut so that the plate can be rotated to position the material to be cut along an angle to its longitudinal axis selected from several angles available.
