Building a geodesic dome greenhouse: time lapse video

[MrBrucelee108]

He glued this structure together!

@MrBrucelee108 no, he used a battery drill and screws, hit pause somewhere at 0:29 and you'll see him kneel and use it. :) I think he only ses the clamps to hold it together until the screws are in.

Thanks for the reply but, the website you posted doesn't work.. can you help?

[pauly1060]

Yes, visit geo-dome.co.uk and click the top link that says shop, I have loads of plans for many different sized domes. Material cost would be around £450 and about two weeks to build.

[bradgray51]

Do you have a web site where I can buy the plans? What was the cost to build this?

@bradgray51 acidome.ru Howerver it is in russian, but google translate helps a lot.

What size difference is your tiangles on the pentagon to the hexagon?

pauly1060,

thanks so much for you vids! i am going to purchase the 4.5 meter plans from your website, but do have a question--does stapling the polythene as you've done provide for a waterproof seal when the pentagons and hexagons are joined together? in other words, are there additional steps needed to ensure that the dome does not leak in between the joints where pentagon meets hexagon?? i do appreciate your time.

The windows are made the same as the main triangle frames, just turned inside out, hinged and covered with polythene. There is also a flashing strip along the top edge.

What did you use to create the venting windows?

Hi Paul, Thanks for the video!

What is the width and thickness of the wood frames in this video?

[pauly1060]

I used 5 season horticultural polythene, stapled to the timber frame before final assembly. Check my channel for a video showing covering.

What did you use to cover your dome and how?
