    I have cut down all our venetions with a GMC 210mm drop saw, but i fitted it with an irwin thin kerf 40t blade and it was easy and produced better ends than were on them to start with. I have cut 22 blinds and not had a problem most were cedar and some were the white plastic type. Saved a heap doing this in one room saved $700 so i bought a new saw!
    Held them by hand against the fence up against a clamped end stop. Mounted blind on F clamps from the garage door opener to remove and refit slats. Saw also cut plastic top rail and timber bottom.
