If the rail is screwed but not glued it can be shimmed to give the correct angle. gilbert gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10982841569669491429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523923067078512976.post-45143255107511019382017-02-22T10:42:47.707+01:002017-02-22T10:42:47.707+01:00Hi Stefan,

With some sort of adjustability I could have corrected the miters.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00349208832511684658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523923067078512976.post-81569483449544880022017-02-21T12:32:52.837+01:002017-02-21T12:32:52.837+01:00Hi Tony,

The stops and the guide are made from beech which can be planed wafer-thin.<br />I found this design pretty easy to build for the first shot.<br />Which design have you chosen? Is it on your blog?<br /><br />Beside that, once again best wishes to both of you.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />StefanAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17569365598390231433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7523923067078512976.post-66023863027109585472016-01-14T15:28:28.238+01:002016-01-14T15:28:28.238+01:00Hi Ralph,
