Random quote: A couple of young fellers were fishing at their special pond off the beaten track when out of the bushes jumped the Game Warden. Immediately, one of the boys threw his rod down and started running through the woods like a bat out of hell, and hot on his heels came the Game Warden.

we use a table saw and set the arbor at your desired angle. also, the fence and miter gauge are good for accurate, repeatable set ups. Use a stacked dado blade for thicker cuts with one pass.

Rick, you could make a jig to index your shaped blank for cutting the lip slot. typically we cut lip slots before shaping the body profile.
