Cutting scalloped hand holds with skill saw

Happened to run across this short video and thought to share it for
those wondering about a inexpensive way to cut handholds.
Slick little jig on a 19* angle.

That is how I make my hand holds, although I make them after the box is assembled.

Exactly like the video except I clamp the jig to the finished hive body.
