I use the Spurlock radiusing jig and a disc sander to get the radius which is accurately parallel to the hammer rail and I can customise the radius if necessary. I agree that arching the hammers on the shanks is also a great technique though it seems awkward to me. If you are using the Spurlock jig to hang hammers the only time tail alignment can be a problem is if you are careless during installation or cut to much material from the tail.
