These drawings are part of the second U.S. patent for Conics. They show three views of the same Conic shelter.
 
      The top image shows the completed structure from an oblique viewpoint. A single vault opening can be seen at the right. The remainder of the perimeter is made up entirely of segments from downwardly facing cones.
 
 
      This view is from the top. And it shows the Conic under construction. The bottom half of the shell-skin has been attached to the tripod formation of "generator poles." 

 
 
      This view shows the completed Conic from the top.
