Default Joint type to use for 'blind' joint

All,

I am making a model display using 3/4" red oak - base is approx. 6" x 7", vertical section
is approx. 10" x 7".

The upright section is not vertical, it is 15 deg. off vertical i.e., angle from top of
base to face of the upright section is 105 deg.

My preference is to have the two pieces connected without any exterior visible evidence of
the joint i.e., a blind joint.

Not being an experienced wood worker, researched the Internet and learned of full blind
dovetail joints - just what I need!

After finding specific instructions on how to create such a joint when the two pieces are
not at right angles - was apparent my skills were not sufficient to end up with anything
usable.

Would appreciate any recommendations on recommended joint types that require only basic
wood working skills.

Thanks in advance for your comments.

Regards,

Doug
