Re: What angle for making needle valves
The compound needs to be set at 30 degrees (half the angle) to get a 60 tip but that seems awful steep to me. What is it for?

Re: What angle for making needle valves
Ray, Since the point angle is included, the coumpound would be set over 30 degrees from the centerline of the spindle.
