sounds like a rail fence patterrn. I have the same problem. Have not figured out why either. What I do is whenI put the two together I kind of center them. Then they go into the bigger square. (4 small sections), I just square them up. Mine usualy are 6 inches from the center. Looks fine when all together as each is squared up the same. smile.
