The top of the coffee table is 26x44.
I want to leave the ends straight, but want to arc the long sides from 26 at center, to 23 at ends. Tapered in 1.5 inches from end to center.
Basically, I want the sides to arc outwards from end to center.
Following several methods, I was getting discouraged how long a radius Id need to draw it out.
I waited for my son, graduated cum laude double major mathematics and computer science, figured hed have the formula.(once in a blue moon his education comes in handy)
He did, I needed something like a 162+ radius to generate such a small arch of 1.5 inches over 44 inch total.(unless ofcourse he used the wrong formula, not sure myself)
Just way too much for me.
Any other ideas other than just try to free hand one jig and make all four sides the same?
