Strip: Rolling Bevel Strips

Quick question about using the rolling bevel method. When you place a strip on the kayak, do you bevel the top edge so that it is basically horizontal, and then put the next piece in place and match the bevel to that... or do you just put the piece on, leaving the top edge with a 90 degree corner, and do all of the beveling on the bottom of the next strip? I was reading through this thread ( http://www.kayakforum.com/cgi-bin/Building/index.cgi?review=133617 ) and came across this image which shows leaving the 90 degree angle on the top of the strip and only beveling the bottom edge. I guess it would be easier this way but I was just checking to see what is definitely the way to go.
