I hope to be turning in the next few weeks but with the work done lately by others I do not think I want to post mine.


Do you have any good hints or ways to tell me how to do staves?  Do you have a sled or jig or how do you make them?

I show how I do them on WTR under segmenting look here Arlin http://www.woodturnersresource.com/cgi-b...1503835768

I don't have a fancy set up as you'll see: once you figure how many pieces you want in your project; slices of pie if you will then it's a matter of how much angle on each piece both sides. It doesn't take much to change  the hight or rise of the project for this I go hit or miss until I get what I want.

Here you go Frank hope this helps I don't use any type of calculator to figure my staves and I just set my stops for each project as seen in these photos.
