Thanks joe- no jig, just slow and easy, 1 set-up, then 30 cuts then on & on. The 1st. set-up was just a straight in cut. Then I had to bolt a plate to my rotary table so I could mount it on an angle on the mill table. Then I made the 2nd. cut at an angle toward the center of the tire. The side cut was an easy cut but a tough set-up. I had to mount the rotary table tilted up on an angle. I had an old adj. angle vice under my work bench gathering dust that I hadn't used in years. I dug it out and realized if I could mount it to the mill table it would work. So I put a plate on it and mounted it. Then I put the rotary table in the vice and raised it to a 40 deg. angle and made the side cut. Isn't it amazing what we will do to work on our toys!!
