    Cutting Scotia beading correctly

    Cheer big-all: for that. Wish i had asked this question before i started, saved me a lot of aggro. I did the mitres the same to start with, but because i couldn't get it right i assumed i was doing something wrong. I have a sliding bevel somewhere, so will try & dig it out.
