Leo re-explained the math of doing the stave taper, slope and bevel angles of the bucket project.
eg for a 32 stave bucket:
360/32 is 11.25 degrees;
each side is then 11.25/2=5.625 degrees
5.625/90 (degrees)=.0625
.0625 x 80 (for a 10 degree slope) =5 degrees
.0625 x 85 (for a 5 degree slope) =5.3125 degrees (or 90-5.3125, which is 84.6875 degrees)
These are the bevel angles for each stave
To gage the thickness of a turning, use an inside caliper, then an outside caliper at the same level, subtract and half this to get the thickness of the turning.
