Step 9: Make practice cuts.
Insert stock wood into the miter box. Hold the wood tightly against the side of the miter box. Insert the saw into the 45-degree guide slot, and cut the stock wood. Now, follow the same steps for another piece of stock on the opposing angle. If the miter box was cut correctly, the two pieces of cut stock should fit together perfectly.
 Hold the stock tight to the side while making the cut.
