Hopefully someone can help with this.
I have always used the angle calculator which I purchased off the guy who passed from Knife Grinders Australia, I think he was called Vladim? I had the app saved on two Ipads, one was lost on an update the other I cannot us as the Ipad just died, I have the program on my laptop but the program will not open now..... 😳
I need a calculator urgently with a few hrs hopefully as have knives to grind to various degrees and want them accurate. Does anyone know of a decent calculator that calculator that will work on a Mac, Iphone and Ipad please...or failing this a Windows PC as I have both.
Looking for the easiest to use as had one I bought off the Appstore which for the life of me I could never figure how to use 😳...
Thanks in advance
This works ok for me .... https://openangletool.github.io/

I just realised I need a calculator fro my paper wheel too, wonder if it will work?

Member JVH (https://forum.tormek.com/index.php/topic,4181.0.html) here has developed a highly sophisticated and featured spreadsheet app.
Thank you....I have the grinds sorted but currently struggling to hone with the paper wheels using the set up that Vladim used on Knife Grinders, I have all my measurements but nothing to input them into as everything is set up for Tormek of course.
I made a version that is similar to the KG apps for those who lost access...

While I am not familiar with all of the programs, I have been very satisfied with CB's Calcapp. It is straightforward and easy to use.
You might also want to try using the marker method and the KS-123.

Calcapp is a very good alternative. But now I mostly use the KS-123 with good results.
The KS-123, Calcapp, and a Sharpie are all either low cost or no cost options. why not learn all three?

You forgot my tables ;)
Dutchman,
Mea culpa. I did not mean to overlook your tables. Speaking for myself. Your tables have always been my go to choice. They have always also been the basis for my kenjig, another option I did not mention.
Your tables have been the inspiration for all of the various apps which have followed.
