Default RE: the unofficial home of the dumas dauntless
Steve, what Rich is saying is that the cabin roofs on big D were not domed but had a gentle arch as Dumas made it. What dumas did not have you do was put a smooth curve transition from the top to the sides. See photo of big D and mine done as Dumasplans with the arched roof but no curve at the joints. Rich is saying you just need to round off those joints rather than build the roofs higher by adding material on top of them.
