Hello
Any one familiar with the process of using a taut wire to check if a series of bores are in line? Typically piano wire stretched with a 60 pound pull, centered to the outermost bores and then a measurement is made to the wire from the inner bores. By analysing the results one can determine if the bores are "in line"
There is some serious math involved with determining the sag of the wire which must be incorporated in the results. Some one at work has made an excel spread sheet but it is cumbersome and (in my opinion) not accurate.
So,, does anyone have or have a link to software that would do the analysis. Ideally something that would make a pictorial reptesentation of the relationship of the bores to a true line.
Thanks
Ralph
