Correct miter orientation

Recommended Posts

I build a lot of plywood chests with hardwood trim. I miter all of the trim @ 45* at each corner of the box. When I cut miter at the saw, what is the "correct" (safest/most accurate) orientation of the board to the saw? Standing on edge up against the back fence, or laid flat on the table? I assume against the back fence, but I wanted to be sure.
