I used an angle finder gauge after I built the frame (backwards planning at it's best) and I had about 15 degrees at the top third, 12 degrees at the center, and 10 degrees at the back... In retrospect, I would have taken more time on the angle, but I was P.O.ed at big oil and just wanted to get something started, then I got the bug!
