Thanks, I do think I understand it now. I understand about the points being center of the pins, and measuring to each side for the tails. And if I understand more correctly now, it isn’t so important what the length of the angled line is, you just find something that is easily divisible by 5 (or how many tails you want). Then mark your points and transfer them to the straight line.
If I got it Thank you very much. That was a lot of work you went through to explain it. You also did a very good job of explaining things.
