not sure what the shaft angle point of view is???? but, i think you may be missing the pt of the working angle(WA). you dont take into account all three pieces, just the joint at each end. each joint has its own working angle. these angles can be completely different than each other, hence the requirement that they stay within .5* of each other. since in the example, all pieces point up towards the front the math would be the same for both joints;
(+4)-(+3)=1*..... so both WA's are 1*...... not (-4)+(-3)+(+4)=-3 ??????

i totally agree. there needs to be a common way of describing the angles. i acutally like the way he puts it since all the pieces are looked at the same way.
