try backing the trim with wood or mdf to give it support both on the base and back

Big-All, once again thanks
I backed the trim with a piece of mdf I had and cut through both and it done the trick, not sure why I don't think of these things?
Fin- yeah I can slow the saw down and I didn't think of that either  but the jobs done now
Thanks guys |
