I needed an angled bench stop, so I came up with this little device: At one end of the stop is a hardwood dowel that can be inserted into any of the dog holes on the top of the workbench. At the other end is a hardwood block that is attached via a wingnut and bolt arrangement through an adjustment slot. I clamp the block into my bench vise to lock that end. With this arrangement, you can set the stop at right angles to the vise and plane against it in the usual way. Or, you can set the stop at any angle you need. You simply loosen the wingnut and vise, then slide your stop to the desired angle before re-tightening the nut and vise.
