Default Compound angle Box Joint

I want to make a serving tray with angled sides and box / finger
joints at the corners. I figured , cut the sides to length and at the
angles I want. (15deg sides) Then to make a jig to hold pieces and
tilt blade at same 15deg angle. Any tips on how to do this?



Tage Frid has plans to make just that
kind of joint. P. 93 of the book 1 if
you have it. If not, I'd recommend it
highly.

However, his plan is similar to yours.
He cuts them on a TS with a dado and an
angled block/jig similar to a normal box
cutting jig.

I know with my skill level, I'd be doing
a fair bit of trial and error with this one.
