[Woodcarver] Cutting Angles

[Bill Smith]

hi jean:

I am tryin to figure out what u are askin here are u
askin that one of the two boards meet each other if so
then u need to cut each of the boards ends at 30
degrees each which will give u the total of 60 degrees
which is what I think u are asking.

if I am think right that what u want above if not let
me know are tryin to cut both boards at 60 degrees so
that u get 120 degrees
