A building worker making a 45-degree cut in a strip of wood with his saw using a wooden mitre (miter) box. The work took place on a house in Kennel Lane, Fetcham, Leatherhead, Surrey, England, UK c. 1930. The box assisted in making cuts at 45° and 90° and had been commonly used since the 1800s. This one rests on a well-worn carpenter’s stool/saw horse or trestle – a vintage 1920s/30s photograph.
