Looks good to me, I've never tried any compound cutting wouldn't know where to start.
Glad you can see well enough to post and read our comments and know we're all pulling for you.

They look great.  I have tried compound cutting but we don't get on well together so now I steer clear.  Sorry to hear about your eye, lets hope you get more good days than bad.
