Here is a terrific project that should be a hit at WoodworkCity.com since our past free cupola planswere well received. This cupola plan is a bit more rustic than the last and should suit a less formal project.
The plans are well laid out and call for cedar to be used for the project.
- 1/2″ plywood 2′ X 4′, best if it’s marine grade.
- (2) 1″ X 6″ Cedar 6′ long
- 1″ X 4″ Cedar 5′ long
- (2) 3/4″ X 4″ Cedar 8′ long
- 2″ X 2″ Cedar 3′ long
- 36″ fine screen
- Nails, screws and glue.
- Stain and/or preservative.

September 8, 2014 #1 AuthorHave you seen the new solar water collectors for roof tops? They have the collection chamber on the roof. It is a metal cylinder that holds about 86 gallons of water. Can you design a cupola type cover for it that would help this device blend in better with the architecture of a roof? They store very hot liquid so a metal roof over it would be best. The tubes run down from the collector over the roof. I need something to cover the eye sore this creates. I needs to accomodate the tubes extending from the solar collection tank. Thanks
