cone math
I am wanting to know if there is a formula for figuring out 60 degree baffle length or do you just pick a number based on how many you want to fit in a given tube length? I have had no formal training in machining but have been at the hobby for a while.
Re: cone math
Cones cut on lathe with the cross slide usually set
at 29.5º ( to give single point tool one side clearance).
This is of course ½ of 60º the angle you are advancing the tool
and makes it easier.
Any other angle can be used as is seen in WW2 German
suppressors that are at a steeper angle, like ice-cream cones,
but imagine in your mind's eye how cramped your tool would be.
Any better idea would be great info.

Re: cone math
Cone length is figured using trigonometry. TAN=OPP/ADJ
