I understand the grain should follow the wrist area with no run out. I have 2 blanks that the grain will not follow the angle of the wrist, I am not able to take pictures, the grain will have some run out through the wrist area, how much run out is acceptable? I would say the grain follows the upper and lower forearm, which will leave some run out through the wrist. I don't know, these are plain red maple blanks. Hope this makes sense. thanks, chuck
