Yep multiple ways to skin a cat.
To answer the original question I think we agree NO 'jig' needed.

Re: bevel cut on bandsaw
That is for certain. I was just indicating how I would do it.algale wrote:OK, I can see how it can be done with the disk sander or a table saw. But I see no reason why it couldn't be accomplished on the band saw.

Re: bevel cut on bandsaw
Gave this a bit more 'thought'.
If no(very minimal) material is removed by the operation(band saw, saw, conical disk), from the reference 'edge'(bottom tilt left/top tilt right) the second pass will result in very almost identical results on both bevels.
Requires only the rip fence(and a light touch second pass). Actually starting with a board slight 'taller' than desired, will remove the need for a light touch since the 'excess' height can then be sawed(?) off the wide side.
