The board for a variant of chess |
2009-03-16 |

Adam pose la question :
I am trying to figure out how big a piece of wood I need for a variant of chess I thought up. The board essentially is a set of 6 concentric rings with an empty space in the center, each ring consisting of 24 spaces - so essentially 6 concentric 24-sided polygonal rings made up of trapezoidal spaces. I know the interior angle of the shape (15 degrees), but I can't figure out the size this thing should be.
All I know is that the innermost ring will have the smallest spaces, and that those spaces need to be able to accommodate chess pieces 3/4" wide without them overlapping onto neighboring spaces. That is to say, the short parallel side of the trapezoidal space on the innermost ring should be at least 3/4". But I have no clue how to extrapolate the full diameter of the board from that one measurement. HELP!

Splitting A Circle Evenly |
2006-12-20 |

Joe pose la question :
I'm trying to make a game board and instead of having it square, I would like to give it a curve (the game is Parcheesi). The attached diagram is pretty much completed (done in AutoCAD). What I would like to know is how to manually find the points that intersect the red line. In other words, evenly split the semi-circle into 8 pieces.
