I built mine 90 degree sides and it makes so many things easier. It is simple to do, just keep the top measurements the same on the bottom and keep it square. Think of the advantages just in cutting the crossmembers! Remember all your joints must have a 90 percent face contact. Multiple angles make that very difficult. People also worry about how to measure line level. I don't. My longeron is perfectly level and everything is measured from it. I think that was the best modification I have done to date. I would not build a future KR with the taper. See my project on the KRNET below.
