Attached is a picture of a window well cover I would like to make. The only catch is, I haven't seen any adapters to make the angles I need. I'm wondering if someone has any suggestions?

You would need to buy a 4 X 8 sheet of PVC at about $100.00 a pop. There are no "adapters" you simple cut the materal at an angle. You do know you can buy clear acrilic window well covers, right.
