The more paint by numbers it is? The better.
Do not let the paralysis of analysis hold you back. A shooting board is a very simple project. The main point is a fence along the back being square to the plateau. If it is a hair off, it can be adjusted either in the design as Derek has on his site or a few strips of tape strategically applied to get you to square or what ever angle is needed.
Here is a simple way to shoot some miters:

The piece of wood can be mounted vertical or it can be used horizontally.
Here is another one of my shooting board threads with an ambidextrous shooting board and some attachments for shooting an angle:

Hope all this is helpful.
