/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1289046
I appreciate your feedback, I really do, but now I feel more lost and hopeless than ever.

First, I'm making a box, not a picture frame, so the boards are turned like pic related, so the shooting board won't help in this situation..
Secondly, I'm really lost as to how his technique would work in the real world anyway.
I have to cut the pieces to a certain length. I can't just trim an arbitrary amount off the end.

>You could use a bevel box to set the angle of your blade.
I'm using a "portable" table saw in my driveway.
I don't have room in the garage to dedicate to a table saw. I really doubt anything like this could be that accurate.

I think I'm going to try adjusting the tilt of the chop saw blade using trial and error with some cheap wood, but then again, it doesn't seem to be accurate for shit anyway, so I'm probably just wasting my time.

Am I missing something, or are miters really a LOT harder than dovetails?
