📚 Understanding Miter Angles

📐

A miter cut is an angled cross-cut, typically used for trim work and frame joints.

📐 Formula

Miter Angle = Corner Angle ÷ 2

For a 90° corner: 90° ÷ 2 = 45° miter cuts

For a 135° corner: 135° ÷ 2 = 67.5° miter cuts

💡 Pro Tips

  • Always cut test pieces on scrap wood first
  • For outside corners, add a smallbackcut for clean fit
  • Use a sharp blade to prevent tear-out
  • Account for blade kerf when measuring
  • For acute angles (<90°), cut pieces slightly long and sneak up on the fit
