I'm looking for the instructions on how to use the Smartcut trim tool.

If anyone can point me to a PDF, or perhaps post some jpgs of the instructions I'd appriciate it.

Thanks

Hmmm. I have the instructions to this tool and still was unable to easily trim covering with it.

I consider this tool a piece of junk and a waste of money. I found I could trim covering a lot easier with a scrap piece of 3/16-1/4 inch liteply and a razer blade.

I hope you have better luck with it than I did!

What is your secret to using it? Just kidding.

I actually ended up making a version of the Jim's eversharp trim tool out of lite ply. I find it much easier and a little safer to use as there are no exposed blades to cut me as with the Smartcut.
