trying to fix an image in my mind here.....when we talk vertical, horizontal & angled hinging are we talking in relation to the ground ? so a vertical hinge sees the blade (the left arm) swinging around a pin that is mounted horizontally like the top of a cat flap in a door ?

this thinking stuff hurts don't it ?


ps Air if my lines of thought are messing with yours, please say & i will set up another thread - i originally thought otherwise but i can now see how they might be a negative to your understanding rather than a positive

All contributions are welcome. I can do my own thing anyway and when I want, so that's no problem.
To your question - . Vertical hinging (the palm of the left hand points vertical to the ground) - gives a clubface that points vertical to the sky - you can put a glass standing on it. Horizontal hinging is the opposite and angled in between the two others.

Maybe it's better to say that when the back of the left wrist (= the wrist watch) points (vertical) to the sky then it's vertical hinging, for the main point is that the flat left wrist controls the clubface - so where the top of your flat left wrist is pointing , so is the clubface and that describes what kind of hinging we are talking about.
