Octagons are formed by making repeat passes on all four
corners of square stock.

Octagons
are formed by making bevel cuts on the four corners of a square
piece of stock that has been sawn and jointed (Figure
6-18). Warning: If you work with the fence at an open
angle, work with extreme caution. Use push blocks to move
the stock. Make the cuts as diagrammed in Figure
6-19 to remove the corners of the square and form four
new faces. When you must make more than one pass, don't change
the depth of cut. Make the same number of passes on each corner.
