In Response To: Re: A case for 90º (Shawn Baker)

:For rolling or bracing, a 90º feather will work
: adequately. But for all the other work you'd do with them, 90º would seem
: pretty unpleasant to me.

Oh, I definitely agree. Just trying to present all "angles" of the argument

: By the way, to make the º angle symbol, hold down Alt, then type 0186 on your
: keypad.

Thanks for the instruction. But since I'm too lazy to even look up the correct spelling of "symmetrical", using 4 keystrokes for one symbol just seems too much work! (see, I'll use 2 keystrokes, maybe even 3, but "...4 is Right Out" as Monty Python said)
