| NeoTech:
A little birdie told me that i could cut radiuses by calculating the "steps" for that radius and then bled the steps with a large file.. This got me curious.. How do i create one of these stepping diagrams? I couldnt find any description in my machinist books or in my CAD software. |

Given a bit more information, I could probably offer some help. |

I need to cut a radius profile on a bunch of roller blanks for a home made english wheel im trying to make.. But i dont have a radius cutter. But, a Radius of say.. 20mm could be cut with several step cuts, and then blended with a file to the smooth radius. i Just need to figure out how i make a diagram so i know how many steps and how deep each step should be cut on my lathe. |

I think Marv has a program that calculates that. Let me look for it. |
