There is an easy way to get a good scarf,...on the table saw. I thought i submitted this to the KR newsletter in the seventies so assumed that many builders may have tried this. First set the table saw blade to the angle that will give you the scarf size you want. (this works if your plywood is 4 or five feet long) Stand the plywood straight up in the air and against the fence and feed it thru. NOW, I know that the ply is too flexible for this so you clamp a scrap piece of 1x6 to the edge that's going to be scarfed. Set the blade so that it just kisses the scrap and feed it thru. The same scrap board will give you 4 cuts by using all four edges. I hope this is clear enough! Obviously ya gotta have some ceiling height for this and an eight foot piece sticking up in the air aint gonna work.
