Because my shop is too small for a band saw or table saw, I was left to cutting tapered legs with either the jig saw or the track saw.

I used the MFT holes to find both 6 and 12 degrees for making the angle cuts needed for this commissioned design - a primitive couch in 8/4 red oak.

Qwas dogs went into the 6 degrees holes, the Festool fence connected those.  The guide rail is butted up to the Parf dogs. After the first cut, I put the waste with the first leg to support the second piece.

The first pass was a scribe. I then set the saw to 45mm and cut the 8/4 on the next pass, barely making a mark on the table.

These Veritas Parf dogs are beautifully machined and have a nice heft. I know that I will be using them again.  Highly recommended.
