Level,we call an angled back cut here in new Zealand the "farmers backcut".the theory for untrained people is if Its an angle cut the tree will not sit back,,
The height of my back cut depends on how much hinge wood is to be left.so if I'm going to leave say 2in hinge wood I will do the back cut 2in up from the bottom of the hinge so it's all square,
