If you have ever tried cutting miters on the tablesaw using a stock miter gauge, you know how dicey it can be to get accurate 45° cuts. And if a cut is off by even a degree, the error doubles when the mitered piece is paired with its mate, creating a “square” corner that is anything but. Miters cut this way often have to be trued afterward, typically using a hand plane and shooting board.
