okiecoiner Pillar of the Community Canada 5603 Posts	Posted 06/07/2022 4:08 pm Just compare the 9-3 gap with the 3-2 gap and the gap between the 2 and the leaf. If they are all the same (or about so), then you have a "near". When the 2 to the leaf gap is much wider than the 3-2 gap, then you have a "far" Yours is "near". Report this Post to the Staff

Yellow guides are an easier way to spot the position of the 2. A line between the top of the 3 go directly to the bottom of the leaf without been blocked by the 2. Notice the gap between the 3 and the 2 too. Nearer and slightly rotated... If you have the feeling at first sight the 2 touch the rim, it's a good indication. Report this Post to the Staff
