Hey all, it's been probably 30 years since I had to order any rectangular capstrip. I can't remember how to orient the dimensions when I order, so as to have the grain running in the correct directions. Some of the callouts are very specific on grain orientation and I don't want to be ordering the wrong stuff, as the sizes I need are quite spendy. Do AS and Wicks utilize the same grain orientation on capstrip order table as they do spar stock, or do I need to specify exactly what I need?
