Dear Anon (Hidden from Privacy),

1. Appreciate if you can clarify whether you meant 160 degrees to the North (to the right) or 160 degrees to the North - to the left).

2. Usually, a protractor is an addition. We must need to use the magnetic or ordinary compass first to find the exact North-South bearing. And make a confirmation using the East-West.

3. Next, we need to determine the centrepoint of the house.

4. Only then we can use say the protractor to look at the layout plan.

5. Please take a look again at the sample protractor. It has an outer ring: starting from clock wise, we start from 0 degrees, to 90 degrees to 180 degrees to 270 degrees.

6. Once we align the protractor's North-South, we can easily read the direction of the main door by looking at the outer ring of a protractor. (The protactor is very useful because, it has smaller markings making it easier to comprehend e.g. 175 degrees or to exactly a few degrees deviation.

7. Since Flying Star only requires a 15 degree deviation for each sector, one should not have any problems finding exactly where our main entrance is (especially if we had got the North to South marking done).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
