Does anyone know of a chart or formula for the angle of a primary grind to get the height of a grind, to blade thickness, to .01 blade edge?
 
Assuming the primary grind is flat, you could do some simple trigonometry.
 
Here ya go- just hashed this out. I hope it's right!

Another way to do it would be to grind a zero edge from either the spine or the bottom of the blade flat. It will be an acute angle.

Then go up from the apex to where the zero-grind blade is 0.1 inches wide, and grind your preferred edge angle from there, using that mark as the top of the bevel.
