My only advice for the younger guys, don't get old! Anyway. I want to taper all four side on a 1-3/4" square leg about the last 4-1/2" on the leg. Thought to only take it down to 1-1/2 so the angle won't be too steep. Mission/craftsman piece.
Been a while since I used my jig. My bad memory tells me to set the foot width at the bottom to the 1-1/2 and then adjust so the cut begins where I want it to. Cut a side rotate until I get all four sides. My problem is my brain is thinking this will take off too much material at the bottom of the leg. My brain is telling me to take off 1/4" per side on two sides so cut to 1-5/8, the reset the jig to 1-1/2 and cut the final two sides.
Thanks for letting me use your brain this morning.
