I set an adjustable angle finder off the plans. Mark the fuse top with the angle set. Transfer a 90 degree line down the fuse back side. The line you draw is going to be a heavy 1/16th back from the front edge. I sand the angle with a 12 inch T sander to the line as a reference. Just take your time it'll only take a minute or two but its very easy to do. Make sure the line and front are square with the top.

Look under "another 260 is born " on this forum and you'll see some pictures of how I did mine.
