Cutting a hexagon from a disk 2014-04-05
From Paul:
I am a machinist and sometimes need to make a hex from round material.
If I know the distance of the flat sides opposite one another of my hex, how can I calculate the size of material I need to turn to give me the right diameter to finish the part with six sides?
