Hi Tman! <br />The method I use is simply cutting, & filing, as described by Mike Meaford. <br />I don't think the degree of the angle is as important as the corner being square, & having a clean corner on the outside. As long as the edges meeting at the corner are filed nice & thin, it's easy to acheive a clean joint. <br />In addition to this, though, I like to reinforce all corner joints by cementing pieces of strip styrene on the inside of the corner. <br />Art Curren's book, Kitbashing HO Model RR Structures is filled with a lot of good tips on working with styrene.
