    Its all in here somewhere.

    this one looks ok from 2007,
    post 4 tells you what to do.
    The angle will depend on the thickness of timber.
    You just want the bottom to be larger than the top opening.
    and keep the slope to the outside.

    Haven't checked if everything is still active though.
