I love you and what you do! Im going to try to have my dome geo greenhouse done this fall. Digging will be my pony wall. I have a few plans ive made but I think ill buy yours to be safe! Wish I lived closer id apprentice.
Keep me posted!
We can't wait to start our projects this summer. These videos help a lot 🤟.
Started my build and excited for the next video
Thank you ❤ 🙂
You're very welcome!
Love you're content.
I need a very small office doom, like 3.5 m(9 ft) I'm tall so I want to dig it down or build up cob. I live in 35-75+% humid and about 45 in rain fall yearly. Any thoughts ?
I want it small for low ac requirements.
I got to thank you for your information and videos. I hope to make a greenhouse later this year and I will definitely be using your instructions/plans. How do you like that Makita battery powered miter saw? I am going off grid and want to get more battery powered tools. Do you run your shop with solar/battery or grid tied? Cheers.
Looking forward to seeing what you build! Yes it's a great saw. I also got it because I was working off grid. I am not at the moment but likely will be again at some point!
Thanks!🎉
Thank you
Towards the end, did you nail the wall into the base? How does that stay structural over time? It seems like not enough? Maybe the dome on top add the structural integrity?
Yes you fasten the wall to the floor system just like any other wood framed structure. You can use nails, hold down hardware, structural screws, etc. It makes for an extremely strong structure
How difficult would it be to make this a half Dome with a pony wall?. I have the plans already. Just not sure which panels I would need to cut out to make it a half division over a 3/8 division.
