Ts55 past 47 degeees

[Antfnee]

Hi.
In a couple of occasions I’ve been making built in units in rooms where the roof pitch is 50-52 degrees. The ts55 only goes to 47 however, so making the shallow angle cut is all well and good but I’m having to reach for my skill saw to perform the steeper one (which makes a terrible job!)
I have split the angle which is fine sometimes, but it’s often easier to have one cut flat as fixing through that is better. Also - depending on the units orientation - I only have the option to cut the front face at the steeper angle..
Any hints/tips would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

I have had pretty good success with making a wedge to go under the track itself, then tilting the saw to an easier angle. So a 10 degree wedge and the saw at 45, you get a 55 degree cut. You do need to take some care to get things secured well, clamps double-sided tape, a couple of brad nails (if possible in your situation) etc.
