I decided to add extra text and a photo.

Steve, if you have been following my recent posts you will have seen just how easy the Oak Park jig is to use, but some pointers:
A good pusher is essential, I based mine on Bj's deluxe one
Keep the work-piece pressed hard up to the fence
Cutting one piece at a time seems to be more accurate
Make a test cut on a piece of the same material and adjust the fence if it's not perfect.
A square piece helps to keep the pressure and the work-piece vertical
A spiral up cut bit gives a really clean cut
