Overview

The CMT DET-003 laminate/veneer cutter is a compact hand tool designed to deliver clean, splinter-free edge cuts on laminated and veneered panels. By placing your material in the built-in fence, you can guide the cutter along the panel edge for a controlled, predictable pass that minimizes waste while you work.

Key features

  • Fence-guided operation lets you align and cut along the panel edge with material secured in the guide.
  • Two opposing steel cutting blades mounted on roller bearings trace the cutting line for a smooth, consistent pass.
  • Micrometer knob on the top adjusts cutting thickness, and a metric/inch scale helps dial in the desired strip width.
  • Adjust the strip width by moving the metal bracket that holds the fence and lock it in place with the lock knob.
  • Cutting width ranges from 15/32 in to 4-21/64 in; cutting depth from 0 to 5/64 in; the tool weighs about 2.65 lb.

How it fits into your workflow

Ideal for finishing cabinet doors, countertops, and shelving panels where a clean edge matters. The DET-003 aims to minimize tear-out and waste while keeping your workpiece aligned with the intended edge. The precise action and sturdy feel may help you complete tasks with steady control, whether you are handling a small run or a one-off project.

Setup and adjustments

  • Secure the material in the fence; glide the cutter along the edge of the panel for a guided cut.
  • Use the micrometer knob to set thickness and the scale to dial in width before tightening the lock knob.
