Double-bevel cutting

To make a double-bevel cut, start by attaching the inlay piece to the underside of the panel with masking tape on all four sides. Set the proper tilt of your saw by making a test cut in two pieces of waste wood before cutting into the workpiece. Tilt your table down to your left between 4 and 5 degrees and saw out a simple design. Fit the inlay piece into the panel. The goal here is a snug fit It's all right if the inlay piece is slightly proud of the panel when inserted, it can easily be sanded flush.

However, If the inlay piece protrudes too far above the surface, the angle of tilt should be increased. Conversely, if the inlay piece does not come up to the surface of the panel, the angle of tilt should be decreased. To make it simple: the farther you tilt the table away from 0 degrees, the less the new Inlay will rise upward.

This procedure is helpful when there are no subsequent inlay pieces to hide the drill hole. Bore the blade entry hole on the inside of the pattern line at an angle approximately the same as the tilt of your saw table. The drill bit will pass through the top layer of wood In its waste area and then through the outer waste area of the inlay piece. No drill holes will be left exposed.
