You can find any kind of drawing on the internet for riff sawed lumber.



All woodworkers I know of consider riff sawed to have ~45 degree angles for the rings when looking at the butt end, but you can find other definitions as well.

I agree that plain sawed can look like a laminated stock sometimes. But occasionally they can be pretty sweet too.

In the end, all that matters is the individual piece of wood and how it matches with the action and the user's preferences.
