Harold Hahn

rather than use a table saw or the blank jig HMH used i cut the blanks apart with a band saw and no concern for accuracy

The accuracy is when the angle is sanded i set the miter to the angle using the cardboard pattern and sand the angle. This does involve an extra step as opposed to cutting the angle on a saw. I never cut blanks on a table saw because i do not have a large table saw just a 4 inch Jarmac and that did not work so well. and i do not know if you can get a smooth enough cut with a saw as apposed to sanding.
