The Genius Miter Trick You Were Never Taught

If you've ever tried to miter two different widths, you no doubt have ran into some problems. Unequal width pieces cannot simply be mitered at 45 degrees. Today I have a neat trick to make a perfect right angle mitering two different width pieces that is quick, efficient, and requires almost zero layout.

As per the norm, I forgot to mention one thing: Depending on the widths of your pieces, the narrow board will most likely come out to a greater degree than what the saw can handle. In this case, the narrower board ended up being around 55.25 degrees, and my saw maxes out at 50. In order to cut a steeper angle than your saw can handle, you have to use something as an auxiliary fence that changes the reference angle. That is exactly what we did here, but instead of setting up an auxiliary fence to, say, 45 degrees like most folks do and then measuring the angles and doing the math, we used the first cut as an auxiliary fence that just happens to already be at the correct angle. I sincerely hope this makes sense! It's hard to remember sometimes what is "common knowledge" and what isn't.

@JasonPeltier Жыл бұрын

yeah that makes a lot of sense... you're not using a 90 degree auxiliary fence like the normal way, you're using the cut angle as the fence and cutting the piece at "90" degrees amazing tip!

@camhutchison5553 Жыл бұрын

One thing not mentioned is if the face of the material is distinct, then if the first piece used as a fence is face up, then the second piece should be face down when cutting it or vise versa. Also pay attention to the edges if it matters - if the first piece is inside edge towards you, the second piece should have the inside edge to the right.

And perhaps use a piece of double faced tape either side of the blade’s path rather than gumming up the teeth.

I actually used double sided tape to tape a small piece of molding to a piece scrap so I could keep my fingers out of the way. Wasn't sure it was going to work so went nice and easy. Sure enough, I got the piece cut with no worries of losing a digit. Nice job.

Excellent tip! I really like the double-sided tape trick. I occasionally place a 3/4 board on my miter saw table and cut two opposing 45° cuts to facilitate cutting steeper miter degrees than the saw is capable of. Up until today I had been gluing the boards on the saw table with CA glue but the tape looks like the way to go! Thanks.
