Re: How big should my dome be????
It's not quite a 36" dome with the sides cut off, but, for all intensive measurements, that is a close enough analagy. As you pointed out, if I just cut sides off, I will end up with all sorts of problems and tricky cuts to do.
If you can imagine that I build a single arch, (180 degrees) into directions(froming a cross from above) then fill the corners in with perfect quarter domes, thus still gaining the strength that a dome prevides.
