Hi Canman

I think Derek is talking about the jig below it can be used in many ways,slot cutter,trim bit and what you want to do BUT sometimes the router is not the right tool for the job , you may want to take a hard look at the table saw/radio arm saw/chop saw ,etc.for this job...

Would it be better to build a jig to hold the wood on an angle and use a straight cutter?

thanks.
