[QUOTE="HonestAbe, post: 340913, member: 25390"] This info about how to orient the crowns in the ring is one of the things I was searching for but I'm having a hard time visualizing it. My arm spins counter-clockwise so if I'm looking down at where I load the oval-shaped ring, all the margins in that ring should face to the right if I understand you correctly. I will be able to take a picture tomorrow and draw on it or something. If I have this right in my head then all the crowns as I've been orienting them are 90 degrees rotated away from what's ideal, and since I haven't been paying attention to the "top" of the ring at all, the margins have been facing either up, or down in relation to the spin of the arm, and not left or right. Easy enough to rotate them but I can tell this is going to give me way less space in the oval ring. [/QUOTE]
