Thank you. Yes, that is the question. So, make a circumference divisible by 6 or
12. Figure the diameter. Then figure the circumference of the old barrel, and
divide by the number of points that fit the outer circumference, to get the
spacing on the barrel. I’d like to make holes big enough to
plant into, so I am thinking 4” long and tapered 2” down to 1”
points? Appreciate getting folks experience who have used them instead of
having to try umpteen permutations myself. Beth Spaugh http://rhomestead.com

[mailto:market-farming-bounces AT lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of stonecirclefarm tds.net If I understand your question, you need to base the positioning of the
points on the outer circumference (a circle at the tips of the points) in order
to achieve your desired spacing. On Thu, Apr 4, 2013 at 9:53 AM, Beth Spaugh <lists AT rhomestead.com>

barrel with points to make holes for transplanting, can I just use diameter =
circumference/3.14, or do I need to adjust for slippage (the difference between
the tip of the point and the actual barrel or depth that the point will go in,
probably 4”?) ? Thank you. Beth Spaugh http://rhomestead.com
