So im with Unit, if anyone could point me in a direction to look up info, or could drop in with any advice, count me in on this.

Tyler, for me it may be as simple as filling in the sectors with arrows to indicate the grain. Only I can do this as everyone potentially has a unique map for grain.

Once you do this, then it is a slightly simpler endeavor to figure out how to align your strokes best. I have realized that shaving WTG and ATG in some areas simply is not possible for me yet...so I go in opposing XTG passes for now.

I hope this helps you and possibly others?
