The measurement to make the angle block for the Gift Box Ornaments by Dan Van Ess were incorrect. To make the angle block, start with a 2″ x 2″ x 3″ block of wood. Measure in ¼” from the edge and use a ruler to make a mark perpendicular to the stock. Measure in and make a mark at ¼”, 1″, and 1 ¾”. Draw a line from the top of the first line to each of these marks to create a series of angled lines. Number the lines from 1 to 3. Cut off the top of the block so it will fit under the scroll saw arm. Use the angle block to set the table to the correct angle for each ring. The numbers on the patterns refer to the numbered lines on the angle block.
