Today I had to make a conical Chinese hat, as its sort of called here, at a 5/12 pitch. Basically a cone shaped roof jack 6" on the bottom and 4 on the top angled to accomodate a 5/12 ptch. Had to do it in a HURRY....not good! I used the process for laying out a cone with the top cut off at 70 degrees and simply moved that angle to the bottom of my layout and pulled true legnths from there. Its difficult to explain....but it worked. I plan to visit the library and find the proper method.
Speaking of rolling and cone hats....can you roll a cone hat in a slip roller. I think I sed to do it but do not recall how. |
