how do you offset feathers ?

(1/5) > >>

dragonman:
I've never posted here before I usually hang around in 'bows', I have one question, When you attach feathers off center to increase the spin, which way do you offset the feather? with the concave surface of the feather angled down at the front? or the other way around? I have always put them on straight before. This has probably been disscussed before here but I cant find it. Thanks, (in anticipation of the answer)

Hillbilly:
Put the dull side of the feather to the wind.

adb:
A right wing feather is off set to the right, and a left wing feather to the left.

mullet:
 I do like adb. The feather will have a natural curve.

dragonman:
maybe I'm dumb , but now I'm confused, Abd, to the right and left of where? not trying to be funny , but which way are you looking at the arrow when you say this?  left will become right if you turn the arrow around ??? I've noticed the natural curve Mullet, should this be angled into the wind or away from it??? I'm not clear now
