Start with a search for Ring Master Cutting Angle. There is some trig function in the calculation based on the width of the cut and thickness of material.

Go to blocklayer.com

You can lay it all out there and play around with the dimensions.

I have looked into Ring master set up. That is not what I'm looking for. A few yrs back an article came out about cutting flat boards into half circles using your band sae and then gluing them back together. This is the information I am looking for. Thank you
