Large coving mitre box?

Watch out for the link wrapping back:

I presume this isn't big enough, but I am thinking of purchasing one. Anybody got one, and is it any good?

ROFLMAO !!!!!

Pasted the wrong link. Doh !!! :-))

I meant this item:

It took 6'' moulded cornice when I had to do repairs in our place, so yes, it's a great little tool. Got ours from QVC but then found their website from the instruction manual that came with. :-)) The item you're going to cut isn't clamped in anything, it actually lies alongside the block, which is then used as the guide for the saw.

I saw this and it looks like the best thing but I'm not sure if it's big enough - it says it will cut coving up to 135mm "girth". Now the stuff I have has dimensions of 130mm from the wall to the edge but is

PK

My understanding of "girth" on coving is the dimension across the face, i.e. the bit you see when looking at it once installed. I hope this is right anybody agree/disagree?

I am assuming this must be for more than the basic halfround type plaster coving hence the need for a mitre box.. BUT.. a handy tip ,if you are using half round type coving, is not to mitre it but scribe to the half round and cut it 'back'on inside corners. Bascicaly using a skirting board fitting technique.
