I have been watching your videos for a few weeks and am interested in turning some open segmented bowls. I can't put a indexing ring on my lathe because it's an older Shop Task 3 in 1 machine. If you already have a video on doing an open segmented ring set up and glue off the lathe, I would be interested is watching how you do this.
I just subscribed to your channel and hope my bowls will now be even better then what has been turned in the past. I have made a wedgie sled from scrap Corion (sp) engineered counter top alone with a off cut section and an adjustable stop which is very accurate. All I have to do is divide the number of segments in the ring and set my electronic protractor, like yours, and the angle is set for both fences.
Hope to here from you and happy turning,
Paul Sandeen

I have never done any open segments off the lathe, having developed a way to do them on the that is very easy SORRY,
You can not mount a index wheel behind the chuck I would like to know more please email me [e-mail]

Thank for the information. Where can I get a angle finder like you have? I would really like a copy of your chart.

[@GeraldJensen]

Hi Earl ... I'd be interested in knowing the manufacturer or model number of your angle gauge. I have one (by General) that has shorter legs and is not accurate enough (only one digit to the right of the point so it can only measures in tenths of a degree).

[@earlssmallsegmentshop5798]

The one I have only reads1 and 1/2 digits like .1, .15, .2, .25 but that is enough for all the common closed segments as for open segments they do not need real accurate angles
( something I haven't talked about and I should/will ) it is made by igaging I had to reload my computer so took time to answer

[@dreadcat7756]

Hi Earl. I would like a copy of your 'cheat sheet" for the angles. Good video as usual. How do I get a copy of your cheat sheet? Thank you.

[@earlssmallsegmentshop5798]

Send me an email and I will send you a copy
