I’m doing a large install with PVC Trunking I had a Magnusson Mitre block but it’s not that great with a large hacksaw.

Does anyone have any recommendations on what to use and a decent saw?
 
Manufactured bends, then you can be as hacky as you like…..

I’ve got one of those tin snip type tools with a mitre plate. Leaves a clean edge, not all burred up that needs filed smooth.

Not a fan of the bends. They are okay in some places but I want to make this as neat as possible.

If your wall is in any was shonky, even the slightest shonkiness, and mitred corners will be a pig unless you use CA glue and activator spray, which to be frank is a pain in the small donkey.
 
I know it’s not robust enough. But I at least want it to look good. I will be filling in and around with caulk. I’m just after some tools etc to make the job that much easier.
