Easy-to-Make Cupola Cools House Quickly

Consider this: by permitting hot air to escape from the attic, a cupola can speed up the cooling of your house during hot summer weather.

And not only do you get the potential savings of a cupola, but it’s inexpensive to make and adds charm to the appearance of your home.

This version will fit all roofs, regardless of pitch. Our full-size pattern features step-by-step photos and instructions, plus a complete materials list. We even include a traceable pattern for the horse weather vane and directional letters.

To obtain cupola pattern No. 348, please send $5.50.

Also available is our catalogue, “Patterns for Better Living,” picturing 700 woodworking and handicraft projects, for $3.95.
