Hi, Dave
You said http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=3046? but I thought
it is http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=2339 explained in Dan's
message, what do you think?

Hi Zhengrong,
The key part to Dan's roof design is this one:
http://guide.lugnet.com/partsref/search.cgi?q=3046

If there has ever been a 33 degree version of this part, I've never seen it and
don't believe it exists (I'd but a ton of them if they did). There is a variety
of this design you could try, but it would mean having an enormous
chimney...something I don't think you are looking for.

Good Luck,

Hi, Dan.
Is it possible to use slope 33 to build such roof? I found most of your
castle are built by slope 45.

Thanks a lot

Both Larry and Jacob are correct.  All of the roof pieces are from 5151 Red
Steep Slope Pieces, which are probably still available from Shop@Home.  The
arches serve as supports as the roof follows the steps of the arch bricks.
These bricks are currently available in Lt Gray from Shop@Home in the Castle
Expansion service pack. I suggest just getting a bucnh of the above service
packs and just experiment around with different designs.  There are a lot more
roofs of this type in my Castle gallery too:

Hi
Please take a look this picture

I want to build the similar roof as in picture, but I don't know how to
build it, does anyone give me a .dat file for this kind of roof?

Thanks a lot.

It looks like it might be both, Zhengrong. You'd need the arch for support, but the concave 45 provides the shape of the roof. That's what I thought you were after. I think that's why you are getting confusing answers from all of us, we aren't sure (...) (23 years ago, 3-Nov-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.town)
