    Default Oblique Angle Bridle Joint

    Hi Guys, I'm making the attached bridle joint. The leg is at a 10 degree angle.

    My figuring is to essentially cut it as you would a 90 degree joint - with a tenoning jig on the TS.

    The only difference being the angle. To tackle that I would cut the ends at 10 degrees so it rests on the table saw bed at the correct angle. Then using a 10 degree wedge clamped to the tenoning jig to rest it against.

    Same method for both M&T's.

    I plan to leave it all over length a little to then flush it up after glue up.

    Just wondered if there's another way? A better way? Things to consider?

    Cheers as always!

    Cam.

    Not that I have done it before - I would do it the way you have suggested - seems logical and safe.

    I may be weird, but I'm saving up to become eccentric.
