I don't know how to make this any clearer. I just hope it helps those who have
questions regarding which way an angled block should go as far as S-Trucks
are concerned..HTH's

Revised to include larger fonts. I think this will help members who don't know
which way angled blocks are suppose to go. It's up to one of the mods to delete
which picture or both should they choose to do so. HTH's, bg
