A 9v honeycomb style geodesic dome build using just a diagram I did in sketchup.

Looking forward to future plans
Pretty cool !
Yes, plans PLEASE! Nice dome!
Plans would be great! Thank you so much!
That was some hope and magic. Thanks.
Plans would be amazing. Loved his video.
Thank you for lighting us up:)...yes, I would like to have a plans
Hey Paul! Wow that dome is perfect for an idea I'm working on. I purchased the G 15 plans from you a while back but I really like the honeycomb look, just the way they interlock! I'd like to build an Aircrete version of the honeycomb style the same size as the G15. That would be awesome 😃
We need the plans, paul. You're the man!
Thank you for sharing Howard's video. I would also be interested in plans when you have time.
Thank you for sharing!
A lot of work for an amazing dome.
Awesome dome. Would love to have the plans. Thank you.
I watched Howard's video and would like the Plans, please. When you get the time.
Yes. That would have us a lot . Please include such details for construction.
For many practical reason . This is much easier to handle .
Toppie! thnx for sharing.. yes some more tech insight/know how would be much appreciated !
love you man!
Thanks
Hello!! It would be great to have those plans... i saw the video from your link and is beautiful and amazing how that dome is :D
Best Wishes!!
Love this project would really like the plans for a dome in my garden probably 3m base many thanks looking forward to your reply
I would like the plans when you have time thank you your great
Would love to see those plans as well Paul, thanks
Plans are in PDF format here: wangerflange.com/downloads/Honeycomb_9v_basicplans.pdf
Great.
I like the look of this. Would be interested in plans yes.
Here you go: wangerflange.com/downloads/Honeycomb_9v_basicplans.pdf
Yes, we want honeycomb design. I'll put in for honeycomb bedsheet for your backdrop.
Paul, Thank you so much. I saw Howards Video as you directed and I’m wondering how much the plans cost. I’m in heaven on your UA-cam channel. There are so many geodesic domes to learn about. Building a T Bow greenhouse now, but I need to build a dome shelter soon. You are amazing. Most Sincerely, Kenya
thank you again for this wonderful video however would it be possible to have the SketchUp file?
Hey Paul! What's the easiest way to increase the frequency of the G15 plans?
Thank you for making the project available, my friend, please, I would like to know the number of pieces of each color to be produced.
Plans would be great! What would be the structural strength differences between triangulation and the honeycomb structure?
If you noticed in the short video, there was a strap around the dome, it held it all together during the build, I was worried that it might distort, as the last few frames were installed everything stiffened up just like an egg shell. It's a strong structure when completed. It took my weight when I sealed all the joints with tape off a ladder. It has amazing acoustics at the focal point inside and when talking, total surround sound. I used an air powered corrugated fastener tool for the joints, only after exhausting other possibilities. The time taken over all was extended by months due to Anne loosing her daughter and I lost my Mum.
It is a big commitment, but worthwhile. I set up a jig for the cuts of the blue hexes, I have s Makita compound saw. Each side of these hexes was 350mm, it gives you a 5m dome. The build cost about £1000. Four hands were needed to cover the frames with polythene, and I used a paint roller to stretch the film while Anne used an air powered stapler to fix it. Hope this helps you to your goal. I'm not a computer buff, I saw Paul's sketch I understood how it was possible to make without a computer. Each of the flower like centres took about three hrs work all in all this summer weekends flew bye. I knock nails in for a living, 48year's, I guess I must have picked something up on the way through. 👍

For edge beveled panels with plain miters i`d recommend using splines and structural epoxy with stainless brads for assembly. Its more work but the joints are super strong and will never come apart. With compound mitered corners, i cant think of anything better than the corrugated fasteners except combined with epoxy.
Hi yes I used resin glue.
@@howardhewitt1797
I use permabond ET 500 epoxy, its unbelievably strong but quite pricey.
Clear as mud Paul...take a few weeks off...your brain 🧠 is on a code 601 overload.
Thank you..plans please
I would like to build one without frame just PC honeycomb panels. Could u give me some tips and tricks? Best wishes. Thanks for your work ❤
I have a picture of something simular that I want to build but have no idea how to work out the angles for each hexegon to turn it into a dome shape yet.
How strong do domes using a hexagonal tiling become, in comparison with domes using a triangular tiling?
Hi, I really like this dome. How can I get some plans? Guess it might be best to email you. Thanks, Mac
Please let me know how the frequencies are measured?
Hi Paul, thank you for all the plans that you have uploaded. Just a question, how would you work out the size of the hexagons if you have to make this dome 3.5m in diameter?
That's pretty easy, I did a video here: ua-cam.com/video/z2KJlcSTObQ/v-deo.html
@@Geo-Dome Thank you
If the diameter of the dome is 120 inches, how to plan in that case?
How do i get the plans, it appears that the website is down?
Loved the videos. Will build one myself. Would appreciate very much if you could send me the plans.
Radius 5 m.
Thanks a lot
A 10m diameter version would be 5.9m high. You`ll need a larger timber cross section for the panels along with reinforced joints. Large open hexagon and pentagon panels are considerably less stable than smaller panels. I`d suggest making a hexagon test panel 727mm on each side and see how easy it is to squish or twist out of shape :)

Thanks for your reply. Was planning to build triangles. What section would you recommend for a 10 m diameter? Where could i source drawings with all the angles and lengths?
Looking forward to reading you again.
Yes please give us dimensions
I would love your thoughts on the Johnson solids, all edge lengths are the same and all Johnson solids can be flattened to a net. So would that mean no bevel angles need to be worked out?
Wouldn’t the bevel angle always be 3 degrees?
I think it's more like 5.5° I'm nearly done with the basic plans and will be uploading a video real soon. Subscribe and hit the bell to be notified of new uploads, cheers.
You will need two different angles, 5.6 deg and 7 deg
Plans would be great.
Hi Paul, just emailed you again. Chasing up some plans mate. It’s the elpsara email.
it is a sphere made using goldberg's division ? cool algorithm -I read about it
cool but it is unstable -it can't to endure loads that classical shape
I read about it in English books and Soviet -very interesting construction
it could be very fast to build one
simple in production
while I was read about this division i understood that there is a posibility to draw any repeated pattern on any trianle plane of any platonic of solid -and then you can project it on a sphere and it would be symmetrical
Hey Paul, I have emailed you and bought some polythene from your online shop, received nothing yet, and heard nothing back,....
Sorry about this, I don't do the polythene any more but have had trouble removing the listing.I did a full refund so you should have been notified by paypal. Let me know if this is not the case. Apologies for the inconvenience, I really need to dose work on the website.
Meh, wanger flangers would make this much faster than a year.
You cant build this dome with wanger flanges ;)
JohnGuest45 you’re right.
You talk over the whole video instead of showing how to build it !
complicated ......my hexagon design is simpler and no need for cutting frames at an angle. They're all 90'.
