How to predict a miter angle from a slope*

I have a pdf file that contains an article and chart of compound angle cuts, but I can’t figure out how to upload it to this site. Help! I could e-mail it to the needy party if necessary.

SST,

That’s Great! Thanks a ton.

You can email it to tceditor@gmail.com

Please let me know if this matches the chart:

Slope / Miter Angle

0 / 45
1 / 45.00872576
2 / 45.03489242
3 / 45.07846817
4 / 45.1394002
5 / 45.217615
6 / 45.31301879
7 / 45.42549802
8 / 45.55492003
9 / 45.70113376
10 / 45.86397054
11 / 46.04324502
12 / 46.23875609
13 / 46.4502879
14 / 46.67761088
15 / 46.92048286
20 / 48.35885673
25 / 50.14429257
30 / 52.23875609

Used a formula I found on the web here: “http://ca.geocities.com/xpf51/MISCELLANEOUS_NOTES/COMPOUND_ANGLES.pdf”

And I used 3D CAD to double check… so theoretically it should be right, unless I misunderstood the question.

I have a scale that shows how many degrees per Inch:foot
For example 1 inch per 12” = 4.75 degrees or a
1:12 pitch = 4.75 degrees
2:12 = 9.5 degrees
3:12 = 14.25 degrees
Where do i send it?

Adam, did you intentionally publish, by means of this blog item, the questioners email address? Hope you haven’t violated his privacy.

For the answer, have a look at this site. This calculator can be installed free on web sites with the permission of David Strip.

[Martin, I think it would be a good idea to seek Trip’s permission to place this calculator on this site.]

These replies are great! You guys are truly incredible.

I will send this thread on to Hans and urge him to join the site so he can share some more of those awesome sculptures of his.

Hi Adam.
If you wish to help Lumberjocks, maybe you can apply an LJ badge to your homepage, like some of the other vendors do.
The angle finder question has already helped me. Thanks to Don sharing the angle finder tool. I put it in my favorites.

Hey Dick,

Thats a great idea.

While I couldn’t convince the higher ups to let us add forum links to the homepage we did add you guys to our power tool questions page.

Once we get our blog up and running, we will put your badge on the blog homepage as well as links within posts to your threads on various topics and questions.

Looks good, Adam.. thanks! I’m just wondering why we are listed as the 3rd resource ;)
