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

Actually if you tilt the saw 5 degrees when you're cutting the strips, then you only have to make one more cut to do the same thing. Eliminates one cut.

For me it's easier to just cut them square and use the plane to get the bevel you really need for each strip.
