We make all kinds of cutting at right angles and other angles by guiding the saw in a miter box. However, for cutting slats with small cross-sections, a miter device will be better, to which you can put the cut object.. In this device, slots for guiding the saw blade are cut in a thick wooden block. The cut strip is pushed to the side of the block, which also resists the blade when cutting. The largest possible cross-section of the block and a sharp saw determine the accuracy of the cut.
