In Response To: Strip: Putting a 5 deg. bevel on strips (Stephen Troy)

: I've seen Rob and others mention the advantage of using a rolling
: bevel rather than B&C, and that starting with a 5 degree
: bevel is a good idea.

: How is this put on the strips? I assume it's done during ripping,
: but I don't get how it would be done.

After ripping the strips to thickness run them through the tablesaw again with the blade tilted 5 degrees - one pass for each edge.
