Cupola or vent?
Planning a small shack that will also double as storage.
I was struggling with the best way to design cupola trusses and windows, etc and thought that maybe a steam vent would be a better/simpler idea. So along with the stack I would have another vent (or two?) for venting with a pull down (or temporary) steam hood. I think that would be easier to design/build. Downside is aesthetics. It wouldn't look like a traditional sugar shack.
Anything else I should be considering in the decision?
Thanks
