Joe Fisher's Segment Calculator

Ned,

Now, that's cool! And it doesn't cost 40 bucks, or take a week to learn! ;)

I've already got it bookmarked. Just in case some day (like, in 2012) I can actually get back to my lathe... ;)

Thanks,

Bill
 
I BELIEVE!!!! I was lying in bed last night thinking about making a bowl guitar and wondering if there was a free calculator on the internet that wouls help me calculate this very thing.

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

You're welcome :) Incidentally, I wrote it because I wanted to calculate the dimensions I'd need to do staves for a drum shell.

I was quite amused to see my name in a thread title. The first thing I thought was, "Uh oh, what did I do now?"

There's an experimental version you can see here that uses the Adobe SVG package to draw the segments in real time. It works natively in Firefox, but may require a plugin in IE.

I'd love to hear any feedback/feature requests/etc.

-Joe
