Sheeesh!
I amay sound like a stuck record on this but like Homer (if I may be so bold to presume) I had fit when I realized just how "forward" the angle of the right forearm approach actually is. I had watched Yoda's Dowels and Drill...100 times before that piece of the puzzle came into focus. I really like the way you explained it Drewitgolf. I have a better understanding of why assembling the flying wedges can be challenge. Watching Yoda do a bit in the Barclays deal helped me explain it. By aligning your left arm at low point, then moving your right hand towrards the left with palms touching. No one believes just how far the right arm is left of its normal (address) position. I read somewhere that Homer said "sheesh!" when he realizedthat the right forearm has its own angle of approach. I second that sheeesh!
