I found this nice piece of wood in the scrap pile. I think it's red oak but can't be positive. profiled it and performed a super sketchy cut on the table saw to give it a nice even bevel.

That's funny, I've made a few of these and always thought to myself, "I can knock this out with a hand plane way faster than I could set up my table saw." A few swipes with a no5 and a couple swipes with a smoother and I'm done. I guess it all depends on how familiar you are with which tools (and of course, whether you're making a couple vs a whole bunch)
