why greek "pi" exists in cutting speed calculation?
The other day my wife asked what kind of pie I would like for
TurkeyDay. I replied pumpkin or apple would be fine.
After dinner today the choices were chocolate or pineapple cream. I
asked what had happened to apple and pumpkin. There was a reason but
it is too complicated to recount here.

formula
when the cutter does not follow a circular motion.
Logic tells me that your machine is converting circular motion to linear motion
and thus "pi" comes into play. I don't want to devote too much time thinking
about this because it is Thanksgiving day and the only PIE I am thinking about
right now is that wonderful pumpkin pie that I smell from upstairs.
Happy Thanksgiving all,
