How does the straight wall at the base effect the overall inherent strength of a geodesic dome?

I deeply appreciate you in co-creating a beautiful civilization! 🙏

Want to learn how do I start

Can I do this in 3d printing through your plans. Just wondering

could you make a vidio without the "background " music. it would make it easyer for me to hear what you are saying.

when will be next episode?

Can you insulate these

OMG I'm dying here "Cut the excess off -- and make it look good"

I'd love to see an update if you ever got a chance to visit this dome again, see what worked and see it filled with plants etc.

OMG do want

😂 this came up in my feed and I was like "I gotta go tag Johnny this looks amazing I bet he could build it"

I am trying so hard to wrap my head around the geometry! Beautiful.

Plan plese

Great narration of the process.

Can we get the owners to video an update with footage of the inside and outside?

Is there a full (widescreen) version of this video somewhere? Love it!

Juste paradisiaque ❤😃👍💯

Magnifique ❤😍🤩

Dude you are a legend 🎉I love it

Please show how to cpver the dome, how to do the roof.

I’m trying to find a good source for the mathematical formulas to get the strut lengths to the long points and the angle/bevel degrees for this method… it is not proving to be an easy task but i MUST KNOW at this point lol

You Rock! New customer, Brother!

Happy New Year I have one question if you take two climbing 10 ft domes and put them together will it work as a 20-foot dome or will it turn into a giant ball

So this method, you don’t put a bevel on the timber. It just works off the bevels from the cuts to form the down.

Who makes those aluminum red shingles ?

You did a cone cut instead of your usual goodkarma here? How does it compare?

Hi I hope you can help answer my question I am trying to build a dome that is 100 kilometers in height , even if in humour , please let me know how you think it can be accomplished A 200km base with a 100km height. How much you think it could be The plan is to add a elevator and offer space tourism in Canada (we need work) I imagine if we get 100 million people working on putting life on the moon that we can accomplish it very easily Also I believe if we put life on the moon that it will bring peace to our planet cause then we would always have to worry about our people on the moon. Also I believe once we put life on another planet that we'll be able to put life on more planets I hope this interests you

I like the idea of using wood. Very versatile material.

Come build one in new brunswick I got two acres

Qual programa voce usa para saber os angulos, cortes e montagem das pecas? Eu vou fazer um domo e uso o programa acidome. Nao achei um programa pra Zome.

Poor design be careful

Do you have a plan for double French door at front and single door at the back? I’m interested the 20ft dome. Thanks

Hi there, I have discovered geodesic domes last week researching how to cover a playhouse in my backyard (overkill, I know...). I have been binging your videos and others since that. Loving everything about it! I have lots of 2x6s laying around and would like to use them, but i am wondering what cut to achieve the strongest structure for a 2v 18ft diameter dome. Should I cut the 2x6s into 1x3s and do a deeper frame than the 1x4s you are using in the video? Or should i cut my 2x6s into ~2/3s (with an angle cut of course). It will be the same amount of wood by frame, but I am wondering wether the deep frame profile really adds strength or not. (considering that we snow sometimes in NJ and I would like to add a swing from the top... Let me know what you think. Thank you so much in advance.

Do you ever worry about this wood rotting?

Are there plans for this sauna?

Is there a way to do this with all 90° cuts on the frame work

Can you do a video of double wide door. Thanks

How easy to put double French door? So the entrance is wide.

Would love to know the total cost to build it. Looking forward to start building ours soon

I am intrested in building a 30 ft + vome. Are there details on the changes to the lengths for other domes? If 4 ft maximum length menbers builds a 29-30 ft vome' does 6 ft maximum lengths make a 45 ft diameter dome? I have the space' tools' and 35 years experience as a builder. I live in a 12sided 8ft each round house 3 stories with an arched roof 16 ft peak. Not Geodesic. I went through 6 structural engineers' two of them twice while I was building it. I'm 80 years old and building a geodesic/Vome is on my bucket list. I loved your You Tube video.

Agreed... our lil spirit protectors

Have you guys ever made a tunnel dome??? :D

What type of flashing did you use? Can you send me the brand

Dude i totally so glad stumbled on your KZbin! I am so buying your plan on a greenhouse type dome. Thank you for sharing your experiences.🤙

Any recommendations for the very tropical environment of Hilo side of big Island Hawai’i? In case you’re not familiar, the rainfall is extreme and we do get some hurricanes.

I've been following you for years...love the update. I look forward to seeing your progress!

Can I get the schematics and blueprints

If you guys come past Cape Town can we build a 420 Greenhouse dome together? Pleaaaase!!

But man oh man tyour website is the most professional in the dome building business
