It is a needle in the haystack and I can't find it. I saw it the other day. Argh. I have tried Google and just reading through threads but I can't find the software program that calculates and prints cut template sheets for DIY PVC wyes. It is Hardgrove or something like that. And it has commercial and free variants of the program.
Would some kind soul please provide the link.
Also, I have been local Craig's list dumpster diving for PVC fittings and found a $5 longer radius 6" elbow and noted that it was welded from shorter segments like the welded metal elbows I have seen. I am geometrically challenged and could use some help calculating the angles to cut PVC 6" pipe to make the segments for a 2x radius elbow. N.B. Warning, when someone mentions a tangent I think they mean that someone is talking off topic. I make a real asymptote out of myself cyphering angles.
I am about to get some string, a pencil and a large piece of brown paper to draw it out but surely this is literally reinventing the wheel.
I have already searched sheet metal transition programs, pipe fitter programs and the like on the Internet and the closest I have found is an iPhone app. Does anyone know of a program to calculate the segments of transitions where you input the diameter of the pipe, the start and end points, degree or radius, and it spits out the segment cut angles?
