" on the inside of the
bottom rail (closer to the baluster routes)
(Fig. 4). This is accomplished by using the
angle template (Fig. 5). This additional removal
of material will allow for bracket clearance
when the rail is installed. For this 31º-33°
angle, the new line will be parallel to the
previously drawn line.
b. Chop saw should already be set at 32°
c. Cut the bottom rail on the new mark at a 32°.
NOTE:
If your cut will result in a baluster
route hole being cut through, repeat
Step 3 and add/subtract a baluster
route hole, re-center, mark and proceed
to Step 4.
d. Go to Step 8.

d. The rail will not match the angle of the stair,
but instead match the inside of the bracket.
The outside of the brackets will be cut to the
proper angle in Step 11.
e. Go to Step 8.
