"Action Angle" Chart

Has anybody been able to duplicate this chart (Figure 11) using a common computer program? Or do you have to get the protractor out and do it by hand . . .

Thanks.

Doug

I just copied the chart from the magazine. The size really doesn't matter, but generally smaller is better. You certainly don't want it any larger than the one in the magazine.

I suppose you could easily set one up in any page layout program, drawing the required lines and assigning them the exact degree of angle you want them situation on. In fact, it would be pretty easy when you come right down to it. A couple minutes at the outside.

You could photo copy it from the magazine?

For your own use, sure you can copy it. Or you could tear out the page and use that.

I know there is a statement in the masthead that you can't reproduce anything in the magazine without written permission, but I also believe in being reasonable about such things.
