65 degree miter cut

05/05/2007 05:32 PM Gabiker03

I need to make a 65 degree miter cut on picture molding, but my saw will only open to 60 degrees max. Any suggestions?

Aux fence/table

If your miter saw won't turn enough...... you need to turn the wood instead.....

Maybe....depending on the saw/cut......

Attach a wedge to the fence to force the wood away from the fence to the cutting angle......

or......

Attach a table and fence 90º to the existing fence......Is the 65º within range now ?

In both cases you'll need to trim your stock to approximate length before attempting the miter......

"...measure once.....cut twice....throw that one away and cut a new one...."
