GreatNeck BSB14 12" Mitre Box and Saw Set for Precision Cuts on

The GreatNeck BSB14 Mitre Box and Saw Set provides a manual cutting setup for sizing molding and trim. Pairing a 12-inch mitre box with a matching back saw, this kit gives DIYers and woodworkers a guided way to make clean, angled cuts without needing power equipment.

The included back saw features a reinforced steel spine along the straight edge to prevent the blade from flexing during a stroke. With 12 teeth per inch, the saw is configured to cut through both softwoods and hardwoods smoothly up to a 3-inch depth. The handle is molded from high-impact plastic for a secure manual grip.

Guiding your cuts is a high-impact polystyrene mitre box equipped with preset slots for 45-degree and 90-degree angles. To streamline project workflow, the side of the box includes a built-in 8 and 1/2 inch ruler edge, allowing you to measure and mark workpieces right at the cutting station.

Because the box uses fixed guides, you are limited strictly to 45-degree bevels and 90-degree crosscuts. The 3-inch cutting depth also restricts this set to standard trim, molding, and smaller lumber, meaning thicker stock will not fit.

Verdict: The GreatNeck BSB14 set is a solid, straightforward pick for anyone installing trim or crafting with small lumber. It delivers guided 45- and 90-degree cuts in soft and hard woods without complicated setup.
