    Thanks I've always had trouble with guess work on drawing stars, never come out right.

    Funny he calls this "no math" when it's entirely because of math. He's done what used to be called "constructing" of a geometric shape. Using a Ruler and a compass, you can make virtually any perfect geometric shapes if you know the math involved.

    • @2adamast

      I think _no-math_ means here _no-numbers_ I doubt it claims to be _no-geometry_ geometry

    • @mitchd949
      @mitchd949 6 років тому

      Well, he still had to do some basic match. Measure the radius, divide by 2, etc.

    • @2adamast

      Only halving was calculated. I can't complain, last time halving was solved through geometry and I said I expected it to be done by iteration. And I understand that iteration can't be used here because the whole pentagon can be found by iteration.
      As for the basic math, it's apparently the diagonal of the interior golden ratio of the radius (1 + ((5/4)^0.5 -1/2 )^2)^0.5 * radius I didn't know that .

    You don't need math's to draw a five pointed star with a compass. Geometry is as easy very precise which checks its self as you mark the fifth point.

    As a custom builder of very intricate, unique homes, I deal with the math and geometry most forget they have learned. I have been laying out "stars" and various equilateral 5 point designs for the better part of 20 years. I was doing some cut in, bronze inlay for a client last week, clocked my time on 2 identical inlayed floors. I'd never seen this method, and always resorted to the protractor and 72° This is by far more accurate, and less time inhibited. First floor, using this method, and being new to it, 14.6 hrs. My traditional 72° Method? 21.2 hrs. Thank you sir. Much applause!
    A quick question for everyone out there...
    What would the theory be for why this works on the 2nd scribe reset? 1 and 1 is not equaling 2 for me on that one...I'm thinking a formula starting at the center of the radius. Something like r/2......

    So you say in the title No math No geometry and then proceed with both math and geometry, a good way to do it, but ti does use both

      He divides the radius by two but you could also find the halfway point of a line using a compass. Search around.

    Does anyone know what angles on a table saw (presumably with a sled jig) you would need to cut to make a border around this star? I'd like each border to meet like a picture frame corner.

    • @WarriorPoet01
      @WarriorPoet01 2 роки тому

      First off, it’s a pentagram. A pentacle is a pentagram with a circle around it.
      Secondly, the pentagram has been around for 1000s of years before Christianity, and has only been appropriated by a couple high-profile cult groups, and the mass media, since the 1960s.
      Feel free to perform additional research on your own time.
