How you cut pipe 30 digree?

We'll generally use a "miter box" to hold the stock to be cut in a fixed position, and then hold the saw at a fixed angle to the stock. Most miter boxes will allow 90 degree, 60 degree, 45 degree or 30 degree cuts. Some specialized ones allow you to cut at any arbitrary angle to the stock.

What kind of cuts can you get on table saw?

Rip, cross, dado & "sink".Table saw cuts include rip cuts, crosscuts, miter box cuts and bevel cuts.A rip cut is a cut made parallel to the wood grain.A crosscut is generally at a fixed 90 degree angle.A miter cut involves a table saw with a miter gauge. A table saw with a miter gauge has one or two slots or grooves running from the front to the back of the table. These slots or grooves are used to position and guide the miter gauge or crosscut fence to set the miter cut at a precise angle. With this cut, the material being cut is angled versus the blade.Bevels are cut by changing the angle of the blade with respect to the surface of the wood on the table.


What degrees do you make an angle and bevel cut for crown moulding on an inside corner?

you could build a miter box that holds the moulding at the same angle as it is mounted between the wall and ceiling. Lay the moulding against the front and back of the box and cut across the face at a 45 degree when viewed above straight down. If the moulding is setting as it would be installed it should fit

What is the hypotinuse?

The hypotenuse is the longest side on a right triangle. It is the side that is opposite (directly across from and facing) the 90-degree angle. If your drawing shows a 90-degree angle by labeling it with a small corner (box), then the point of the corner always points toward the side that is the hypotenuse.

What is the measure of angle rpq if rp is 10.2cm and pq is 16cm and qr is 40 degree angle?

Well, 40 degrees is already given.. And the angle "R" I assume has a box in its corner, that represents a 90 degree angle. as for I.E: "L" <-- is a 90 degree angle. so you add 40 + 90 = 130. In all triangles will always = 180 degrees. No if and's or but's about it. so you would take your 130 degrees subtract from 180 degrees, 130 - 180 = 50! and that will decipher your answer your looking for.

What is the value of a 1978 miller falls miter box?

These are very good miter boxes. I have been using them for over 30 years. It is hard to put a value on one. The saws alone go for 30-50 dollars at woodworking auctions. A saw with a box can go as high as 100+ at a woodworking auction. At other auctions prices can be much lower. I bought three boxes with no saws at an auction for a dollar each (not a woodworking auction). There is not much of a market for these without a saw. Today I bought a Miller Falls Langdon Acme miter box with saw, in excellent, condition for 4 dollars. No woodworkers at this auction. 35 -100 dollars would be a common price range for a saw in good working condition.
