on sun, Rain and storm have no effect. But with a weather house like this, you only get the good side of every weather.
If you always wanted to know, how the weather will be, get your chance now, collect really reliable data. With such a weather house you have the ideal place for all necessary measuring devices.
You will still get professional weather forecasts from weather services or the media, but what conditions prevail in your garden, can be determined much more precisely with your own weather station. Largely frost-proof dates for sowing and harvesting, for example – such data is best collected on the spot.
For the Seibermacher, the attraction of such a station is of course the construction of the little house. But it never gets complicated. The material requirement: four pressure-treated posts (7×7 cm) each two meters long. They ensure a secure footing. Furthermore approx. 12 running. M. construction wood (3,5 x 5,3 cm), that. 5 running. M. tongue and groove boards (7 x 1,5 cm), that. 10 running.
M. Smooth edge boards (9 x 0,9 cm) for the slats, that. 4 running. M. Smooth edge boards (7×2 cm) for the roof frame and others of the same kind 11,2 running. M. for the 14 Dachbretter, wood glue and weatherproof paint. And then the weather can come.
reliable data, this is also guaranteed by the slats (air circulation) and the white paint (heat shield). For even more precise data it is recommended, the housing with longer posts approx. 2 m above the ground to plan.
The anemometer (links) measures knots and Beaufort. The rain gauge (underneath) "counts" the precipitation in the form of pulses.
The instrument panel consists of the rain gauge LCD display, a barometer, a combined thermometer and hygrometer and the display clock of the anemometer (left to right).
1. Oblique cuts (in the angle of 15 City) at the head ends of the stand-of square timber (7×7 cm) serve as support surfaces for the roof.
2. As a connector between the stud frame and cross braces (their dimensions: 3,5 x 5,3 x 60 cm) serve wooden dowels from 8 mm diameter.
3. Apply waterproof white glue to the wooden dowels, then the scaffolding with large clamps (so-called servants) squeeze.
4. Beams from serve as the substructure for the roof 3,5 x 7 cm, the same with wooden dowels (8 mm) be fixed on the stands.
