I have written a program to calculate compound miter joints.
You can test and use it

Please let me know if it is not calculating correctly or understandable.

Can this be downloaded?
It certainly seems to work. It will almost necessitate that you have something like a wixey to aid in set up.
Years ago, I attempted an eight sided bird feeder. It was a disaster because I couldn't figure the angles. Now maybe I have a chance.
Thank you very much.

You can also use the program Nick posted on the blackboard in this session.

It requires Excel to run.

Yes. It is a standalone file, just save as an "HTML file only" option and you can name it anything.html. You can then open it in your browser without an Internet connection.

Go to his page and click on FILE/SAVE PAGE AS. Then on the next box at the bottom, change file type to "HTML file only". ALSO save it to where you can find it. Click OK.
