Hello hello! I hope this is not an inappropriate place to ask this, but I put together my lovely little Colonel Rombus Speakerdog earlier today (He’s amazing!) and really could not for the life of me get the fez to come together. Is it just me? I generally am pretty savvy with this sort of thing, but it just wont work 🙁
Colonel Rombus wants his hat!

Hi
I have had a couple of people say this.
I need to go and download what they have up on Speakerdog and see whats going on..
I have a nasty suspition it may be an earlier draft of the piece which acidentally got sent and used..
The fez should be larger at the base and smaller at the top.The wraparound sides should just overlap as much as you need them.
I will go investigate..

It’s funny, but right after I posted this, I figured out what the problem is. I had the exact same geometry issue with an Architecture studio project last semester 😛
Basically, the image they have posted show the “walls” of the fez with straight, parallel lines. To make it in to the proper truncated cone shape, those lines should be curved inward towards the fez-top, a la this explanation.
