The volume of the cylinder would be ((5/16)/2)^2 * pi * 18, right? Pi * r^2* h. That comes out to 1.38 for me, about 4 times larger than in Nates equation... What did I miss?
I'm just trying to make sure I understand the math right so I can guide. my kids through it later when we need to do it... I don't want some mistake or something forgotten in the 10 years since I last really used this stuff to screw up my team!
