Thanks very much, it's a little hard to understand but I'll mull this
over.

It's the correct answer, and why you'll find it best to cut with the board
vertical unless you're using yourself as a vise and keeping the wood on
skids.

The form of the saw will give you the mild undercut you need if you keep the
handle close to 90 degrees to the board.
