Default miters


Use a hand saw and a miter box and it will be 10X faster and safer!


I hear you but im not too confident with my skills yet and fear that the
miter would never line up!



Nothing wrong with practicing on some scrap first. That's how I learned to
make nice coped joints.

I get pretty good miters by clamping the stock in a cheap plastic miter box.
It is the slipping in the box that generally screws it up.
