Segment Angle chart in English?

[leehljp]

I got this chart from Pintrist but it is in Spanish instead of English. Does anyone know where to find this in English? Or maybe a similar chart?

I am trying to get a resource list in one place of different things such as drill bit sizes, segments, Angles, Screws/bolts, Jointery, and maybe others.

Its not a chart, but its an on-line calculator...
Move the slider to how many segments you want.
Move the second slider to the diameter

any help?

THANKS Loring! That's great! I have it bookmarked!

Hank, I had forgotten where I saw this since I use an Android App called "Segment Calculator" (free), but here's a great little calculator on the WR website that works well for computing segment length (inside and outside) as well as angle based on inputs of OD, segment count and thickness.

These will all come in useful. I have been meaning to have a try at segmented turning but the list of shop projects just seems to get longer and longer. Oh why do I have to keep slogging away at this day job

Thanks Bill, that is good. One thing I didn't understand - what is the fudge factor and what is its purpose? I ask that because even minuscule fudging produces spaces and errors in segmented bowls that I have seen - and attempted once.

The "fudge" is on the thickness, I believe, not the angle. So without the fudge, you don't have any margin for error in turning to the desired dimensions, and once you remove the outside cornices and inside flats, you're at your final dimension, no room for anything else. Fudge gives you a little extra thickness to sneak up on final dimensions.
