Moyo,
That was the same question I had over a year ago. The advice I got was to buy a
book on segment setup and turning. I got mine off E-BAY for less then form a
book store. I have gone back to that book several times and read it over. They
have drawings and charts already figured out, copy them and take it to the shop
where you need it.

This is the formula to figure segments.
Diameter x 3.1416 = circumference. Divide by the # of segments =
length. For example. 7" x 3.1416 = 21.9912 divide by 12 = 1.832 is the
length of your segment. This is for tip to tip. You can go to my
segmented site for more instructions.
