Maury S Posted December 1, 2015 Share #2 Posted December 1, 2015 There are a lot of possibilities with this. I'm doing volutes on my Echo section and the spiral template makes great patterns, both clockwise and counter clockwise.

Bob Blarney Posted December 9, 2015 Author Share #5 Posted December 9, 2015 Look over the site carefully. There's a calculator that can scale images that have been scanned or that are on the internet. There are also many other things, e.g. circle-divider/protractors for woodturners. It's a a very useful site for many projects if you look around. Canute and mtaylor 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
