      Hey Freddy. You had mentioned that you used 2x2s to cut your bevels into. Were those true 2x2s or were they 1.5"x1.5" Thank you.

    I'm part way through building mine. Quite fast once you've built the jigs, I've spent a week on it so far and built all the pentagon triangles. I expect it will take 3 weeks in total for it to be complete. I'm doing the 6m GD27 using 3"x2" treated timber. It's good fun and I highly recommend it to anyone who has the space for one. A bit laborious but not hard at all, anyone could build one.

    I like that you don’t use hubs to hold this together. I’m building one with the same idea. It makes sense to me that the hubs are the weakest part of the structure. When you join the sides, It is a stronger design. Great job!

    I am planning on building a greenhouse and am unsure on whether to build a poly tunnel, stick-built with window panes, or a grow dome. I like the geodesic dome structures and can see potential in utilizing the vertical space for tall vining plants. I like the idea of having an area in the greenhouse to sit at a table while dinning on salads and drinking wine.

    Well done! I imagine you may even be able to replace damaged triangular sections of the poly if that becomes necessary, but I believe your prediction is correct - you'll enjoy that dome for years to come, naysayers can go build their own.

    • @JohnGuest45
      @JohnGuest45 4 года назад +1

      The poly is wrapped around the edge of the triangle and stapled so you`ll have to remove the triangle before you can remove the staples ;) This construction method is also prone to leak where adjacent triangles meet and also at the vertices. Tape is appled over the joints as a fix but its not a reliable long term solution to what is really a design issue...

From there on things have progressed I suppose...if you would like to build one yourself I would recommend to buy a plan from geo-dome.co.uk. It’s not expensive and you will have all the technical info needed to build one...Paul the owner of the site is a very good guy...

    • @TheOldDog
      @TheOldDog  5 лет назад

      Hi There, thank you very much for watching my video. My Dome is up now I think for it's third year and the first plastic is still on. I live at the end of a windy corridor coming from the seaside and the wind can be seriously violent, but the dome nor the poly has moved an inch. As long as you put enough time in fixing it properly as recommended by Paul Robinson in his videos...Also there's poly in different thicknesses and UV resistance. It's worth looking into that as well. Regarding snow we only had maybe once or twice for a couple of days the fun of snow, so I have not much experience on that issue. For that short time and maybe 1" thick.
      Hope this reply helps you to have a go at it, it's really rewarding when the project is finished and you can have the benefit and use of it. F

    Nice work! What angle did you rip the 2"x2" at?

    That is a great looking dome and the whole process is wonderfully illustrated here. The only thing that's got me wondering is how difficult it would be to replace ripped plastic coverings in one of those triangle frames. Hope I'm wrong, but I'm thinking "bloody difficult!".

      To redo the plastic is virtually impossible. One has to come up with a different solution. One of these day I’ll make a video of my intermediate solution. Thank you for watching.

    We are now in June 2020, almost 3 years later. Can you share with us the integrity of the structure in terms of resistance to the weather? How is the plastic holding up ? Is the wood degrading ? Etc etc... thanks

    Nice dome 👍How did you seal between the panels? Silicone?

    • @TheOldDog
      @TheOldDog  7 месяцев назад +1

      Yes I did. However that doesn't make it waterproof. You have to finish of the seams with a transparent tape on the outside. Special polythene tape. It holds about 2yrs. After which you will have to redo it. But it does a good job. Hope this will help. Have a nice one.

    Great Job, looks nice. Just one comment. By using silicone between the frames you made it harder to take the frames apart for replacing the poly film. I'm wondering if the joints wouldn't be watertight enough without the silicone?

    • @TheOldDog
      @TheOldDog  5 лет назад

      Hiya, thank you very much for looking at our video. Sorry for the delayed reply. The plastic in itself is preventing for a real watertight finish. However I have come up with a complete different solution that suits me very much and that has proven to work to a T. One of these days I will make a follow up video about it. Have a nice day. F

      Hi there, thank you very much for watching the video. You can find the plans on the following website. Geo-dome.co.uk. They’re not expensive and the owner is very helpful to get the measurements adapted to your needs. Just need a bit of patience as he’s a busy guy. One little advice when you start precision is key to make it work. Every cut counts. Good luck with the project. F
