I would like to build a mission style frame and flat panel doors but the stiles and rails are pie wedged shaped or 3/4 inch thick on the ouside edges but only 5/8 inch thick on the inside. How would you suggest accomplishing this Thanks

E-Z Dial slot cutter. Like the Amana Mission Style door bits the E-Z Dial allows you to adjust the groove to fit undersized plywood. After cutting the miters, (for super-smooth miters try the Amana Tool MS10600 miter saw blade) cut grooves for splines on the corners as well as grooves for the panel. Next, use your planer and a jig to bevel the faces of the stock before assembly.
