Let's use your original example it will clear the fog. I will be more exacting in my description. The 5* part I get, anything beyond that is the machine, yes?

Regarding your photo/attachment in regard to what I am talking about - 5 degrees DEFINITELY NOT - 95 degrees would be the correct answer in regards to your attachment - and referencing my post. 90 degrees would be a square clubface and no one would have a 5 degree clubface - in reference to your attached drawing. The force through the center of mass would create say 95 degrees but never anything close to the 5 degreee.

In regards to your comment/question:
"The 5* part I get, anything beyond that is the machine, yes?"I have know idea what you are referencing.

This issue of CF aligning the clubface relates to Homer's "Hookface" definition.

Last question before I file this away. Make any difference if the plane is angled or vertical?

No -
Just used parallel to the ground for simplicity - easy visualization for the example.
