Hi,
I want to make a merry-go-round that will use the 14-stud UFO domes as a
canopy. A calculation assuming that the edge of the wing tapers by an
integral number of studs says that the angle is just a little over 18 degrees,
which would mean that 10 pairs wouldn't quite fit together as a circle.
But it's also possible that the taper is actually an accurate 18 degrees, and
the width is not quite integral at the narrow end.
If anyone has done a precise measurement, or actually tried making a circle
like this, please post a reply with what you found out.
Other suggested approaches are welcome, too. I have a deal for some 12-stud
quarter-circle Belville bricks arranged as a fallback.
Thanks,
Ran
