Thanks Joe, this was good thank you. [I edited this below as I originally missed out a step] For a "No Maths" 5 hole pattern - Draw a circle & bisect with 000º, 090º, 180º, 270º. Call each point on circumference A, B, C & D with the Centre X. Bisect A-X for half Radius. Call this point P. From point P, set compass to either point B or point D (doesn't matter which)and then scribe a point intersecting X-C. Call this point Q. Set compass from either Q-B or Q-D. This length can now be stepped around the circle to make 5 equidistant points (5 bolt holes or a pentagon) Stay safe and well :)

1:34 To do a five hole pattern: Let O be the origin/center of the circle, A and B be the start and end of the diameter line, (As shown later in the video) and C be the point on the circle 90 degrees from A and B: 1) Draw the diameter line (A to B) shown later in the video and a radius line (From O to C) at a right angle to that. 2.) Split the diameter line into four equal sections, (Let's call the two bisect points, D and X) so that the A to D, D to O, O to X and X to B line segments are all equal to each other. 3) Set your compass to the distance between C and D, then draw an a circle around C. There will be two points where the circle intersects the main circle, use those two points and with the compass at the same length, draw arcs downwards to intersect the main circle again. Connect all of the intersections with line segments, and viola! A 5 hole bolt circle

5 holes - draw the circle with radius R, then set the compass at 1.176R {equal to (R*(2*sin ((360/5)/2)))} and divide the circumference similar as you did with the six hole example (first one) but progressively around the circumference. Close enough for a scribed and center punched layout. Or points 72 degrees apart with a protractor (0, 72, 144, 216, 288). To layout with a protractor - 360/n (number of equal sides). Inside angle of any point on an equal sided polygon is ((n-2)*180)/n, n= no. of sides. ex. square is 90, triangle is 60, pentagon is 108, hexagon is 120, octagon is 135, etc.... (Edit 2: outside "turn angles" = supplementary angle to inside angles, i.e. 180 - the inside angle, example for a pentagon, supplementary is 180 - 108 =72, and 72* 5 turns = 360 degrees, and the sum of any closed figure is always = 360 degrees because if you turn a total of 360 you end up facing the direction you started at) Also - for anyone using the properties of the unit circle to draw the pentagon, the length of the sides, for a radius R, work out to ((5/2)*R^2-(SQRT5)/2*R^2)^0.5

For any bolt hole pattern greater than two the compass can be set by using the following: Compass setting = Bolt circle diameter x sin (180 / N) where N is the number of bolt holes. For six holes the compass setting = Bolt circle diameter x 0.5 or the Bolt circle radius.

My old "American Machinist's Handbook" has a table for the x-y table moves for hole patterns of various numbers. The patterns are for a base diameter of 1". Multiply the given numbers by the diameter of the circle required. Very helpful for odd bolt hole circles, e.g. seven or eleven. On a manual machine you always have to remember to come up on the desired move from the same direction to keep the back lash in the same direction for each move.

My 17th edition Machinery’s Handbook has a section on this.They make it very easy. To layout five it takes a bit of basic trig. That doesn’t mean it is difficult. By drawing two lines at right angles, one point can be drawn on one of the lines. There is 72 degrees between points,so by using the sine and cosine of 72degree two more points can be laid out. Similar with the last two points. Sine and cosine of 36 degrees. This is the easiest way I know besides the machinist bible. .866 is one of the most useful number I use. When adjusting a three jaw chuck,the diameter time .866 is the distance between similar points of two jaws. The distance between flats of a hexagon divided by .866 is the distance between peeks. Every machinist should know how to lay out bolt circles. Thanks for instructing the less experienced how this can be done. Of course most CNC machines will do this for you. I myself like the feeling that I did it by myself without help from computers.

Hi Joe, I do basically the same thing as you've shown, but for 30/60°, use 1:2: sq root 3 (1.7321) and for 45 1:1: sq root 2 (1.4142). For odd layouts, work out a baseline and go straight to trig, and always reference all holes to the single base position, not to the previous position. I do that in case I do make an error, and only the hole I've made the error will be wrong, not all holes past the error. You should also close out your pattern to ensure there is no closing error, so if you had say a 13 hole pattern, when you calculate the coordinates for all the holes, also calculate the the coordinates for the first hole from those of the 13 hole. Regards Dennis.

When dealing with a BC, treat the radius as a constant. Use sine and cosine to find the distance along the x and y axes. From center the distance along x is R * cos(angle). The y offset is R * sine(angle). If you follow proper protocol and measure the angle counter clockwise from where the centerline (x axis) crosses the right edge of the circle, the signs of the sine and cosine will take care of themselves. IE 45° cos is .707, sine is .707. 135° cos is -.707, sine is .707. 225° cos is -.707, sine is -.707. Etc. This may sound difficult at first, but it allows dealing with BC’s that are not symmetrical. Just calculate hole by hole. Any number of holes can be figured, with any angular spacing. Today there is no excuse for not having a calculator with built in trig functions. I often use the HP41 app on my phone. I liked the way you set the right angle with the compass. For small stuff it is better than the 3,4,5 method. Or the 6,8,10 method. Keep up the good work!
@dennismasi97363 жыл бұрын
For layout/drawing N hole circles with radius R, arcchord is the straight distance between the points along the circumference 2*R*sin(180/N). To get the X,Y offsets to drill such a pattern on a mill (without a dro), each hole (n:1,2,3,4,5) offset from the center is (x,y) = R*cos((360*n)/N, R*sin(360*n)/N) -- for radians, use pi and 2pi for 180 and 360 respectively.

To be honest i am very bad with math, but i still feel as though what you showed still cant be translated into a part.

5 hole easy (pcd is 63mm) = 360 degrees / 5 = 72 degrees, Sin72/2 = 0.58, Sin.058x63mm = 0.59, 0.59x63mm again = 37.17mm is the distance between holes around 63mm pcd circle, use that divider/ compass

At 5:56, you are constructing a "perpendicular bisector." That's a really powerful technique for making a perpendicular line right between any two points. One of the most useful geometry tricks out there. Draw enough of them and you turn your square into an octogon, or double the number of sides in anything. The pependicular bisector between any corners gives you a radius line to the corners between them. 4:33, squares and parallelograms have 360 degree interior angles. Every closed shape, including those two, have 360 degree external angles. That is, if you walk around anything and end up where you started facing the same way you started facing, the total amount of turning you have done is 360 degrees. Works for any number of turns. For the pentagon, 360/5=72. 3-4-5 triangles are great, as are its multiples. 5-12-13 is another good one, but 3-4-5- is usually more accurate. I remember more of this stuff from my 7th grade wood shop teacher than I do from geometry class or my entire engineering curriculum.

Joe’s challenge was to find a quick and easy way to use triangles to identify the locations of the centers of five holes, equally spaced about a center. I agree that a simple solution does not appear. Here’s what I’ve come up with. For convenience we can name the centers P1 through P5, with corresponding locations (x1,y1) through (x5,y5). We can orient the work so that one of the holes, call it P1, is aligned with the x axis. This will give it location (0,R), where R is the distance from the center. Then the remaining four holes will be symmetrically located about the x axis. Name them incrementally as we progress clockwise around the center, so that P2 and P5 are each 360/5 = 72 degrees away from P1, with locations (x2,y2) = (-x5,y5). Similarly, P3 and P4 are each 144 degrees away from P1, with locations (x3,y3) = (-x4,y4). To find the locations of P3 and P4, notice that the triangle formed by P4, center (call it O), and P3 is isosceles, with base P3-P4 and equal sides O-P4 and O-P3 of length R, with included angle 72 degrees. We can drop an altitude h from O to P3-P4 at A, which will give us two congruent right triangles, P4-O-A and P3-O-A with hypotenuse R and included angle 72/2 = 36 degrees. We can solve this right triangle. This gives us h = R*cos(36) = R*0.809017, and (P3-P4)/2 = R*sin(36) = R*0.587785. This already gives us the location of P3 and P4: P3(0.587785*R,-0.809017*R) and P4(-0.587785*R, -0.809017*R). There remains P2 and P5. P2 (and P5) is 72 degrees from P1 which is on the x axis, with distance R from the center O to P2. This R is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. We can solve this right triangle, giving y2 = y5 = R*cos(72) = R*0.309017, and x2 = R*sin(72) = R*0.951056, with x5 = R*-0.951056. After all the math, the locations for a set of five equally spaced holes about a center at the origin are P1 ( 0, R) P2 ( 0.951056*R, 0.309017*R) P3 ( 0.587785*R, -0.809017*R) P4 (-0.587785*R, -0.809017*R) P5 (-0.951056*R, 0.309017*R) One sequence for progressing on the mill would be 0, R 0.951056*R, 0.309017*R -0.951056*R, 0.309017*R -0.587785*R, -0.809017*R 0.587785*R, -0.809017*R

Hey Brother Joseph, For me that was a trip back to 11th grade Trig class. Good thing too because I forgot how to find the length of a cord of a circle. I haven't done that since I got a DRO that did bolt hole circles. - I hope you keep doing things like this every now and then. To rest is to rust and after not actually having to think and do some trig and even algebra for a lot of years it's good to have a guy like you put a boot in my keester and give me a much needed refresher course. (I'm betting some of the kids have never done anything like this. Good to show 'um how) Hey, when is the next installment due on the little lathe? I get more smiles to the mile out of that then anything else on the net. = You get much smaller and you are going to have to get a lathe and mill with dials that read in tenths!

Hey Joe did you see Tom Lipton's latest video that shows how to describe a pentagon/5 hole bolt circle?
I use a Zeus chart for working out bolt holes on a PCD. With a Zeus chart it is very easy to calculate the co-ordinates for locating odd numbered equally spaced holes - e.g. 5, 7, 9, 11. Just multiply the values shown in the chart by the diameter of the pitch circle to arrive at the correct co-ordinates. Obviously a rotary table makes life easier but in engineering there is ALWAYS more than one way of doing everything ;-)

360/5 equals 72 degrees on the indexer for a pentagram...360 divided by any number of bolt holes will give the temperature. There is another method for using a compass but I can’t figure out how to explain it here. I butcher bolt circles almost daily so I had to click on this to see what master Joe can teach me. Thanks Joe.

@@rogueart7706 Yes. But start at the centerline of the layout, not the shape it forms around the perimeter. For example, each internal angle on a hexagon is 120 degrees around the shape, measured inside. Only if you draw lines from the very center to each point do you get the 60 degree value you use. Otherwise, you'll have 6 angles of 120 degrees or 720 total. 360 is totaled at the hub.

How to divide circle by any number -easy do it by dividing straight line ,the circumference. Circumference= Diameter multiplied by 3.14.Divide it by any number you want and use the result in a compass.I do it for the bolt pattern on a lathe for example on flanges.If you use a sharp tip knife ,like 60° threading knife (sometimes i use actual tungsten el cheapo scribe in a toolpost )you can scribe a small line.Divide it with a compass ,use a center punch ,drill it on a drill press -no DRO needed.Fast and simple. If you use a peace of paper as long as xircumference you cna make a template for drilling pipes for example,or notch a tube if you fold it in half (i still havent figured out a way to do it under angle lets say 45° on paper,but there are programs online for that that you can enter dimensions and it prints out template www.blocklayer.com/)

A golden rectangle can be drawn with ruler and compass. The angle between the short side and the diagonal of a golden rectangle is 360/5 = 72 which the same as the angle between consecutive bolt holes on a 5 hole pattern, which means that a 5 bolt pattern can also be drawn wth ruler and compass.
@moorejl573 жыл бұрын
Use polar coordinates for each bolt hole, then convert to Cartesian. Given a bolt hole at lets say radius 5 and angle at 72 (part of 5 hole pattern) you get X = rcos@ and y = rsin@.
