[QUOTE="Pioneer~Saturn, post: 6438222, member: 569334"] usually .5" increments between the cuts will make almost any turn but to do it the right way so the cuts all touch and create a single surface on the inside requires some math. Draw it up on sketchup, highlight the outside of the curved area of the panel and see how long it is, then highlight the inside of the curved area and subtract the inside length from the outside to see how much material has to be cut away to make it perfect.. Then devide by your blade's width and you have the amount of cuts you'll need (if it isnt a whole number just round up)...then you'll need to do the math for the spacing between the cuts to fit the 'X' amount of cuts within the 'Y' amount of length the kerfed portion is on the panel..[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] that would be the perfect way of doing it imo, to get perfectly 'mated' kerf cuts on the inside.
