Is it Friday yet?

While I haven't found much difference in grain orientation with respect to notching, I have found a difference in planning. I usually run a hand plane in both directions to determine whether or not I am cutting into a rising grain or falling one. The falling grain will cut smoother. Since I tend to plane bridges from bass end to treble end, getting the grain running the right way definitely makes a difference when I am planning the bridge to the final height. As far a notching goes, I haven't noticed much difference.

Obviously I would be notching toward the treble arrow & with the bass arrow. The splinters are from notching the wrong direction against the grain.
