I use a flush trim hand saw and then hand sand. There are several brands but I have the Veritas aka Lee Valley. I think they go for $20.00 US. It works on dowels, splines, or plugs of any kind. I even used it to trim around a doorway when I was installing a new floor. It is one of my favorite hand tools.
And like all hand tools they help keep you warm when you use them. Berry in St Paul |
