@Fonte

Let me know how it turns out Smile

@micheus

Yeah, the B value was just my own observations. I wasn't really sure what kind of math I should have been invoking so I was just taking all of the values and trying to make sense of them all. Suffice to say, I did not get very far. I thought I was, but it turned out to be a dead end.

I now have to wrap my head around trig. Was perusing the wikipedia article about it and I came across this line;

Sine function (sin), defined as the ratio of the side opposite the angle to the hypotenuse.

I swear to god, I have absolutely no clue what that sentence has told me. I must have read it 15 times now. Is it English?! lol

Thank you sir for your help. Smile

Not that I think I was unclear, or that you guys didn't get it, but here is a simpler image of what I am looking for.

Sorry to bug you guys. Tongue I will keep chipping away on the trig stuff. What I don't understand currently, in relation to this newest image is that, all the measurements I have are widths. The width of each column (2.0), and the width and height of the total "piece" (8.0). If I want a column, with a width of 2.0 to line up with the yellow circled corners (roughly the red lines), how do I find out the measurements or angle for that?

There is a good chance, micheus, that what you told me still applies and I am just too dense to get it yet. Tongue

Cheers.
