Good information. I did it very similar for many years as a wood pattern maker. Especially your first lay out. And because we used 6 segments per ring on most everything I just used the radius to get the lengths of the segments. If I wanted more I could use simple math to get the number. We never heard of a wedgie sled back then plus the rings would have been to big for one.
Today i do use a wedgie sled for the segmented bowls I turn. I also use a simple and free app called Segmented Calculator 2. This is a huge time saver over the second part you are doing. But the first part is a must if you do not have design software.

Awesome! Thank you for this information. I'll look at the segmented calculator.

[@Belg1970]

That segment calculator only got 2.8 stars any idea why such a poor rating??

[@ThePapa1947]

I have no idea and I figure it is probably someone who does not understand it. I think it is one of the best free tools you can use. It is on my phone. Both versions work fine. I am using Segment Calculator 2.
I also have found that most reviews lean toward the negative side on almost anything. When someone has something that works good they hardly do reviews.
Just give it a try. It matches what I do with WoodTurner Pro and it is always in my pocket. Beats going back in the house to check things on my computer based software.

Thank you for sharing.
Yes, I agree, all the videos of segmented bowls but they don't show you how to do it.
Like it's some sort of ancient secret.
I mean we're not performing brain surgery here.
I've been turning for 3 years now and was baffled by this technique, saying to myself I'll never be able to do that. I'll give it a try.
Thanks again.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Awesome. I answer any questions you may have if I can

[@Belg1970]

Enjoyed your style of sharing the information very much, might suggest that you add a link to the next video in the series in your description above. Thank you.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Thank you very much.

[@Budkeywest]

Awesome! I just bought a lathe to compliment my xcarve! Thanks!

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

That's fantastic! Doing wood turning is very relaxing and enjoyable. Thank you very much.

You are my Guru 🌈❤️🌈🤙🏻

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Thank you very much.

[@phil57chev]

my dvd is in chinese,no manual,no grbl,any help would nice,anyone have a copy to help ?

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

I have no idea how to begin to help you. I would go back to where you purchased it and ask for help

[@luisangelcolon4479]

You can use a squared paper...

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Yes, any graph paper would work, however, with me not being able to leave the home for the next two weeks, I am using whatever materials that I have at home.

[@dwaynecampbell3595]

Would you say you have to be good in math to get into carpentry ?

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Being able to read a tape measure is critical. Basic math skills are important.

[@stewartmcmanus3991]

As I have lived in a metric country for 50 years, imperial is very difficult.

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

It just takes practice. Then again, why change if you are in a country using metric

[@luisangelcolon4479]

Cuadriculated paper

[@PawPawsWorkShop]

Good choice, but I can not leave my home during this pandemic. Thank you
