How do I represent diagonal orientation and wrist wriggling? #13

I have a couple questions

First, how do you represent diagonal orientations using the font? I want to adapt the font for Russian SL, and I donʼt really understand how to represent signs such as House or Station. My idea for the case of Station was to use u`=*.%u_ %..%_}{, but I don't like how it is not very symmetrical, and also this still doesn't help to write down House

Second, I don't understand how to represent small repetitive wrist movements. They can occur along one of three axes: around the wrist (RSL Tuesday), to the sides (RSL What) or along the direction of the palm (RSL Knock). You could display that as change of orientation (e.g. ."<<<.' for Tuesday), but that seems to suggest a lot stronger movement than it is supposed to, so this problem might be solved by solving the first problem, introducing a way to display diagonal orientation. Alternatively, a special way to signify the wrist movements would be good.

Is there an existing solution that I am overlooking? Or is it something I will have to solve in my RSL version?
