NOTE: The instructions given here are for templates mounted to the base of the jig. However, this joint can also be
made with templates mounted to angled clamping boards. You must use the angled clamping board for steeper
angles.

Use the same setup as you would for the obtuse angled joint. Use the blade tilt angle for making the angle insert or
the angled clamping block. Bevel the edges according to the drawing (Fig. 63A).
