How To Build A Geodesic Dome WITH Skylights!

[@rhkips]

I had to stop and go back for a moment, because I never noticed before... That tree... Is it...real? Did nature actually do that? That has to be the most unique tree I've ever seen! So cool!

[@cameronbarber3768]

I was just thinking that same thing and had to send a screenshot to one of my arborist buddies lmao

[@AvianAttorney]

It's called a Sitka spruce. They're known to grow like that and some even resemble an octopus.

THANK YOU for actually noticing. The tree is truly amazing and the main reason why I didn't want to cut it down. The right side of the tree got knocked off long before I purchased the house and the stems of the tree grew vertically straight up after that. Very unusual but so cool!

Thanks so much for the kind words. They are so worth the effort :)

Chrysler emblem looking up at the skylight windows! Sponsored? Kidding. Great job Brent and I’m sure the kids and friends will use it often. Thanks!

This is very motivational for all us aspiring builders! If I wanted to do a bigger dome that could fit a bed/air mattress, would you recommend doing it with the Magidome connectors like you did? Or, do you think I should use a kit from one of the dome companies like Northern Glamping or Pacific Domes?

Trillium Domes all the way!

I think what you built is really cool. If you ever get leaks at the skylight you might want to put the plexiglass over the shakes because that trim board might hold water.

Excellent. very cool. I would spray those shingles with something? Really great video series, the racking support underneath really stiffened the deck up nice, good call. Thank you, JIm in Oregon. I'm pretty sure that tree is a Deodar cedar, Cedrus deodara

[@RelaxingRestoration]

Looks awesome :)

A beautiful house! It looks a bit like SpongeBob's pineapple house.🍍

[@BYOTools]

LOL! Love it and I completely get what your saying. Now I know what we need to dress up as for Halloween haha! Thanks so much for watching.

[@pdmark311]

you are going to want to paint or seal the OSB or it will take on water over time.

[@BYOTools]

Completely agree and planing on it. Thanks for the recommendation and hope you enjoyed the video.

[@saulgoodman2018]

Bet the dog will use it more then the kids.

[@AlainStar]

Thanks for all the support along the way.

[@lechatbotte.]

Great build if you get sent to the dog house lol. Seriously the kids will never want to leave

[@BYOTools]

Can you imagine how cozy this thing would be loaded up with pillows and blankets lol!

Treehouse.....On deck......By a tree....
