I use a mitre trimmer.  Used to have a huge Oliver No 2 trimmer.
Awesome machine, a 400 pound hand tool, but it took up 16
square feet of shop space and when a big enough offer came
in for the beast, it went out the door.  To be replaced by a cute
little trimmer from Lee Valley, which works great and sits under
my workbench instead of crowding me right out of the shop.

I must admit that the mitre jack and paring chisel are a
great combination, but I got me something that works now.
