| Hello, I''m trying to construct a dome with a tessellation made up entirely of hexagons and pentagons. Does anyone know how I can calculate the angles at which the shapes meet? I''ve made a paper model which works OK, but it''s not accurate enough to measure angles from. I thought I had it at 36 degrees but when I tried to draw it in AutoCad, the shapes didn''t meet up correctly. Any help or advice anyone may have would be greatly appreciated! Regards, Paul | |

| Hi Paul Go to the site map and find a topic called "Plans for a simple geodesic greenhouse or shed" You will find all miter saw settings on that thread. | |
