I am trying to make a chippendale pattern on railing for a new deck. My posts are 4×6″ and the chippendale pattern will be created by 2×2″ attached to 2×4″ top and bottom. Unfortunately the spacing between the posts varies. Is there an easy way to make a template or calculate the angle cuts for this pattern?
