This really worked well for cutting my bevels. When I got use to it I could cut an 8' bevel in about a minute. I could cut 5,7 1/2, 10 and 20 degree bevels using this one grove by slipping another strip loose fence against the fixed one, and sometimes two. Also slipping a 1/4" strip into the grove and setting my 3/4" strip on top of it. The 5 degree was used 80 percent of the time. I had a piece of wood nailed to the end to keep the beveled strip from slipping forward while planing. The strip holding grove was slighly wider then 1/4" and 1/2" deep with the edge closest to the fixed fence measuring 1 1/8". I use a finger plane to cut my rolling bevels. It was so simple and was the best thing I did while building my last boat.
