The bad weather, an Freecad-umbrella....

This umbrella doesn`t work.
Be care, if it`s raining cats and dogs.

Nice project. I have no experience with repeated objects, so to learn something more: The sketches Sketch, Sketch001,...Sketch005 are identical besides their position in space. Is there a possibility to use something like polar pattern?

Draft Array can be used, but rather than on the sketches, it should be used on the first Part Revolve object. The downside is that colour management won't be as easy, since the Array acts like a single object. Still, colours can be set to individual faces by right-clicking on the object in the tree and selecting "Define colors..."

The automn season is coming here and with it rain. But we had a pretty good summer with a lot of sunny days, so I didn't require your umbrella cad-gast2. ;)
