Scroll down towards the end for string angles? https://www.cigarboxguitar.com/knowledge-base/how-to-make-a-simple-...

Hi James, here is some info that may help. it will save relying on someone else's layouts and tailor your own to suit your p/h designs. I used elastic bands but you can use whatever works. Hook the band around the plastic body of the pin [to simulate the machines post] hook the other end over the nut slot position and just wander over the area of the peghead face checking for the best path the string can take.

Ideally the string goes around the post from the centre of the p/h, but at times doing it the other way can't be avoided. 

I keep all my P/H patterns for future reference, probably got 40-50 of them.

Hope this helps taff.
