TIL that grain direction on endpapers matters way more than I thought

Spent 3 hours trying to figure out why my book boards kept warping after gluing. Turned out I had the grain running the wrong way on the endpapers. Has anyone else dealt with warping issues from something this basic?

Had a pal whose book covers curled like potato chips from the same mistake.

It's funny how one small shortcut leads to a big mess later. Reminds me of how people skip the little steps in anything and then wonder why the whole thing falls apart.
