Great Job! I made one of these a long time ago and know how much work is involved. The thing that sticks in my mind is how tricky it was to keep track of the compound miters, thanks to a mitre saw that only tilted to one side, not both :) For larger sized spheres i would rip the wood lengthwise to create an edge bevel cut a basic miter on one end of each strut and leave them a little long, assemble them on a jig. Cutting the excess off with a handsaw to match the edge bevel. That would provide a (flat) planar surface making it easier to attach a rigid covering.
Salute to the master
Keeping busy! I like it!
Looks like a Bucky ball
Wouldn't mind making a house like that
I love this kinda stuff keep it up i like the details
Thank you for sharing. It would make a nice cattio.
I think so too!

what are the miter angles? Looks great!
I will hove to look it up . I forgot 🥺
