Yes, i ended up with 12. Just last night i compiled the pages, bought some big graph paper and gave it a try. It's a very interesting lesson in the considerations, much more to it than the 2 basic angles. I'm going to do a little more research to understand rake/trail and how it looks on paper - i think i have it straight, but maybe not. I'm used to thinking in terms of trail rather than rake.
Now that i've been through it once, i'm going to draw up a couple more to play with different angles and TT slopes, it's a fun exercise.
