What angle do you cut these at and does it change with thickness or standard angle?? What blade are you using?? Lately I have been using a #1 MGB set at 1.5 degrees. I always use 3/8 stock when doing inlays. The angle well vary depending on wood thickness and blade size. I used a #65 drill bit for the entry holes. Using a #3 blade I set my saw a about 1.7 degrees and use a #63 drill bit. JTTHECLOCKMAN, Scrappile, OCtoolguy and 1 other 2 2 Quote

Give it a shot. It was fun. My big concern was drilling through the side into the top to put the hinge pin in. OCtoolguy 1 Quote

I do not have the magazine so have not seen the article but was it the same as you shown and done as an inlay project or did you modify this in a few ways. ?? OCtoolguy 1 Quote

They suggested making it out of 1/4" wood. I never use 1/4" unless it is plywood. I didn't understand the instructions very well so I did it my own way. I will try to take a couple of pictures to explain how I did the corners. Writing is not one of my strengths. OCtoolguy 1 Quote
