I prefer to use the laser and the bench saw , far quicker and less
brutal , i dont scribe around the architraves i trim them off ,
neater finish and covers any expansion . Door frames i use an edge
trim cover prefixed or trim the frame depending on wether its going
to be a continous run or stopped fixing .

Any scribing is done with a small router and guide pin bar , fast ,
clean edge and very accurate .
