geo dome and me

[jeepster]

i know this has nothing to do with trees. but i thought you guys would like the work that went into my geodome. its all made out of hazel collected in local woodland in the west midlands. This it the first dome i have made. so was very happy that it went up without a hitch.

Is it to get a cover?

 

How are the poles attached to the metal work.

It'll get quicker! Looks fantastic. I used to erect steel domes regularly and they were hideous. The bruises I've got as steel bars swing down and slam your shins when you're walking a layer up...
