I’m working on my first house-type model and have a roof question for you
experienced town-builders.
Unfortunately, I cannot use the roof slopes for this project, because the
roof is sloped at 30 degrees rather than 45 degrees, and has a valley-type
intersection (see the areas labeled “v” in this picture at Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Rf-iso1.gif). If LEGO only had 33-degree
double concaves like the 45-degree ones, I’d be all set.
The intersection of the two roof segments are at a 90-degree angle, as in
that Wikipedia picture.
I need to sit down and play with this for a while this weekend, but I figured
I would also check with folks here to see if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks!

Have you considered using plates and wings/wedges tilted with hinge pieces such
as the roofs on sets 10182 and 10185 (but on a larger scale)?
From your picture linked I see one spot where this method would have issues, but
elsewhere it could work.
