I cut cut the wood to length, but have a tough time cutting the angle. I

If you have both a table saw and a mitre saw why not cut the wood 3/8" x
3/8" x3' and use the table saw to cut the 20 degree angle then use the mitre
saw for a straight cut = one piece made. Trim off the end of the long piece
to cut the 20 degree angle and back to the mitre saw to make the straight
cut = 2nd piece made, and repeat.

That had been my thought, but then I also thought that no-one in their
right mind would even think of trying to hold down such small pieces
near a saw blade. That is especially so when he says he makes the
angle cut second. So the word "troll" came to mind as well, and I
didn't reply.
