    Default Understanding the lingo

    Hi guys this might be the wrong place to post this (feel free to move it Mods)
    Being a beginner leaves you with loads of stuff to read up on so I thought I'd ask about clarity on the meaning of the Acronyms used on the forum I'll Kick it off.

    WTG = With The Grain
    ATG= Against the Grain

    Hey Oz that list is no good! It doesn't have the abbreviation for CT = Cut-Throat razor, included in it. It's an incomplete list. We'll have to speak to the MODs about this. Bloody serious discrepancy.
