I was wondering how to correctly interpret chamfer measurements. The plan for the ShopNotes assembly table calls for a 1/8" and a 3/8" chamfer on the different pieces. Does this mean the depth of the chamfer is 1/8" or the hypotenuse should be 1/8".
Also, what is the best way to set depth on a bit with a guide? Trial and error or is there a magic trick. I've seen setting up a test block with common chamfers that you can use to quickly set up but was wondering if there was an different way?
Thanks
John
