As far as any rule of thumb goes; Zubbly in one of his 3 .pdf files explained how to skew (http://www.otherpower.com/images/scimages/4/zubbly2.pdf and http://www.otherpower.com/images/scimages/4/z_conversion_all.pdf). Basically he said 'skew by one slot'. I've slightly modified that rule (it goes wrong when you use relatively little magnets per row, i.e. 2 or 3) and let a bit of math loose upon it. See this .pdf file:
