Earth ship is NOT for equatorial, don't need heat .

[@vega-nik]

quanset might be cool for a dojo space

[@PeterCsere]

Yeah, one benefit is you can have a high vault ceiling and lots of open space with no posts/supports in the way, yet without having to spend a bunch of $$ on trusses and girders to span the distance

Interesting! How are bugs not an issue in the tropics near jungle trees?

[@PeterCsere]

Depends where you are in the tropics. Some have more mosquitos, some have no mosquitos but more gnats, some have sandflies, some have almost no bugs at all

Nice video. A lot of good info. Any thoughts about a bamboo yurt for that climate, or using bamboo to build the geodesic dome?

[@PeterCsere]

Sure u just need to be aware that bamboo tends to crack/split in the sun so it has greatest longevity in construction when it is covered. Yurt would be fine, for a dome you'd just have to make the connection hubs and ideally not use a transparent plastic for sheathing.

10:00 what're advantages or purpose of the quonset buildings compared to the current methods you're using?

[@PeterCsere]

Stronger, which isn't so important here with no hurricanes/etc but still... Simpler/faster to build. Not necessarily cheaper but. Aside from the foundation and interior work, most of the building is just bolting together curved sheets.

Actually been thinking about this a lot lately, so thanks for the video. Guessing you've quit Facebook, any other way I can contact you? :)

I'm still on Zuckerbook, just takes me a while to respond to messages sometimes ;-P
