You want the corner to corder distance of a 2 inch square. That would be the square root of 8 which is about 2.83 inches. A 2" square should just fit inside a circle that is square root of 8. And have a few thousandths clearance inside of 2.83 diameter circe
Remember c = sqrt( a^2 + b^2) for a = b = c you get c = sqrt(8) On Fri, Mar 11, 2022 at 7:44 PM gene heskett <ghesk...@shentel.net> wrote: > Greetings all; > > I need to setup a starting point, a preliminary turn operation, ahead of > the thread carving just to get that over with before the finer work of > actually carving the thread, with a .25" LOC 1/16th" round nosed tool. > > This will involve cutting a 2x2", probably a few oversized, so a caliper > will measure it as 51.5x51.5mm square.
