• Are you looking for a coupon code to buy my software? You can get one from lots of 3rd party sites but they won't work. My software never goes on sale and has never been discounted. The only coupon codes that are given is when I give a club presentation and I offer a discount to the attendees. Other than that, everyone pays the same price.

    wereto add ring design in woodturner pro?

    Select "painted segments" in the bowl settings. Also make sure that you set the number of segments you want per ring before painting the design. Select Paint from the upper bar to bring up the paint window. paint your design and when finished go back to bowl view.

    How to increase wall thickness of 1 ring

    In SP you cannot adjust the wall thickness for just one ring. - If all you are wanting to do is increase the wall thickness for one ring why not just make the stock you are cutting the segments out of wider. Example if SP says to use a board .75 inch wide for ring 15, make it 1 inch wide...

    Amount of wood needed.

    I use an 80-tooth thin kerf blade for cutting segments. Find that makes a very clean cut.

    Good morning. The link below takes you to a cut list optimizer. That may be what you are looking for. There are others available for free use on the web if you do a cut list optimizer search. https://www.cutlistoptimizer.com/ I tend to overbuild a bit on my bowls. With that a lot of my...

    WTP Cutting Summary not showing species

    Not surprising since WTP has been around a long time. It is still one of the best segment planning software out there. imo, it does not take that much time to export the summary and add the species column and the data in a spreadsheet if that is what a preson wants to do. I generally just...

    WTP Cutting Summary not showing species

    Hi Dave: The issue you are having is known. It is how the export to CSV was programed in WTP years ago. Not sure if or when Lloyd may include the species in the export to CSV format. Mike

    How to measure first cut width

    It is number you pick. In LP the "Repeating Unit" length can be considered the Segment Edge Length you need to make your featured ring. The SEL is calculated in WTP or SP based on the diameter and number of segments for the ring. By changing the First Cut size in LP you change the repeating...

    how do i separate a box top in the software?

    There is no way that I am aware of to seperate out the top in Segment Pro. I also don't believe you can do it in WTP.

    Blade tilt in Segment Pro??

    Hi Curt. As far as I know you cannot do staves in Segment Pro. You can in WTP. the Summary sheet will show blade tilt.

    Here is a vid from Tom Lohman on planning a bowl from a board. He cut the rings out on a scroll saw. 45degrees should work, imo. Title: Videos - Segmented Woodturning

    WTP Cutting Summary not showing species

    Hi Dave. It would be helpful if you would attach your wtp file for us to look at. The default species column is what you have chosen as default. It can be changed by selecting the disk or ring and changing the species in the row detail window. In WTP when you paint a segment it will be...

    Paint screen

    Not that I am aware of. Current version of SP does not allow one to change individual ring heights like you can in WTP. Example in WTP you can insert a zero height ring to eliminate the brick stagger pattern. base disk ring 1 height 0.25 ring 2 height 0.0 ring 3 height 0.25 ring 4 height...
