I am shortly fitting my new kitchen. However the supplier is only able to supply the wood to make the angled corner posts. These are to go between an angled cooker unit and a drawer unit on either side. Is there a way of calculating the angle that i have to cut the two pieces before joining them or is it a standard. The two side units will be at 1050 mm from the corner.
regards

Re: angled corner posts
If it's across the corner @ 45° it should be easy to work out.
If it's not a 45, when the cupboards are fitted just use a sliding bevel on the front faces of the cupboard.
If you don't have a bevel use two small pieces of timber overlapping and mark the angle that way.

One day it will all be firewood.

Re: angled corner posts
It's not the angle you need to work out as one side is trimmed down and stuck to the other. What you need to work out is how much you need to trim by. For that you need to now how deep the carcasses are and how thick the doors are
