Abstract:
1. A cutting guide usable with a cutting tool, said cutting tool including a blade, said cutting guide allowing positioning of a piece according to an installation orientation relative to the blade, said tool being provided with a working table having a substantially horizontal plane, a guide having a substantially vertical plane and means for angularly positioning the blade relative to said guide, the plane of the working table and the plane of the guide forming orthogonal planes, said piece being of the type comprising a longitudinal axis, a rear portion substantially parallel to said axis and an inferior portion substantially parallel to said axis; said cutting guide comprising: a longitudinal axis and opposed ends; a first means cooperating with the plane of the working table and the plane of the guide for maintaining the longitudinal axis of the cutting guide substantially parallel to said orthogonal planes; and a second means comprising: wherein said piece to be cut is a crown moulding or an analogous moulding, wherein said first means comprises at least one rear abutment adapted to contact said orthogonal planes substantially at a point of merger of said orthogonal planes, wherein said second means comprises: a second component comprising: a third component comprising a longitudinal axis and a face provided with one or more contact points adapted to contact the plane of guide of the cutting tool, wherein said cutting guide further comprises a substantially corner-shaped adapter allowing for modification of the predetermined angle, said adapter being provided with means for releasable mounting thereof to said first component so that one of the faces of said corner defines a new inclined plane.
