Correct me if I'm wrong but you listed the various books on machine tool restoration and measurement- one of which was Edward Connelly's treatise.
In Connelly, the details of the creation of 30, 45, 60 degree references were included using the 3 plate system which refers to both flat and angled work.

I recall fairly clearly what advice was there and used it many years ago.

I hope that this throws light on the matter

Regards

Norman

Hi Norman,

Ah - now I understand - sorry.

Phil.

Phil,
       Amongst other things, I had to train my memory. Used something called Pelmanism and for my maths, I used Trachtenberg which was developed in a concentration camp- to keep the poor bloke sane.

As the years go galloping past, I'm glad- I think?

My regards- thank you for your most valuable contributions here.

Norman
