I have a cheap 3" Chinese rotary table and thought I would play around with making dividing plates for it. The ratio is 36 to 1 so playing with the numbers a little a made a 3 1/2 " plate with 28 and 15 holes and mounted it on the RT and made a spring loaded pin mounted to a handle. That seems to work okay. Then made some sector arms from black acrylic. Mounted it in the mill vise and did a test to see if it really works. Just cut a hexagon using the holes in the plate and it was good
This was just a proto type and may actually make a better one now that I know it will work.
