I've just made this very ugly jig to cut the mitres for the door I have to make for my latest dayclock. The outside angle is exactly 90 degrees (or 270 depending on your perspective). To test it, I cut 4 pieces all the same length, using a makeshift stop block, laid them out on a piece of masking tape, rolled it around and wouldn't you know it, a perfect square.
This was so easy to make, and all out of scrap I had laying about, 12mm ply base and the rest out of 4x2 pine. I put a slightly higher piece behind the angled pieces to hide the blade, don't want to lose any of my digits don't you know :surprise:
Edit: oops, forgot the photo
