Help Building Custom Dome
I currently have an observatory in my attic. Its great. However, i'm about ready to reroof and thinking about building a more stately dome to replace the NexDome 2.2 meter dome. The NexDome is ok but not the most robust design. I have it tied down as it is attached only with gravity. I want something more robust. I cant find a suitable replacement under that looks good. Most commercial products are too large. Im stumped but still looking. Any links or help finding a supplier or contractor is appreciated.
I have been searching for someone to help me with my attic observatory project. About 4 years ago I put an observatory in my attic. My home has a widows peak for a roof that is just under 10 ft square. I installed a NexDome 2.2 meter dome and it has served me well but it has some limitations and cosmetically I think I can construct something more attractive for my home. I would like to use copper and a raised seam so the dome would age with a beautiful patina and look great on an old home. If I could find somewhat detailed drawings or at least a set of plans that I could take to an architect even if the size is off would be helpful.
