What would building be without pretty pictures? We had measured the hole in the ceiling (24" square) and the height to the roof (20" on the high side, 14" in the low), and decided we didn't want to open the ceiling any closer to the light currently there. I got to spend this morning playing trigonometer, drawing tringles, deciding on angles, taking sines and tangents to calculate lengths, and finally figured that a 30° angle, a 20° angle, and two 10° angles would make our skylight the prettiest. I had to draw a picture to make sure my spoken version made sense to the folks building the framing.
Yay Pictures!
p.s. I can't post the working page; it's too messy. well, maybe later.
