hi, why some hexagon are not same is that because of calculatiin or just miss some alignment while cutting?
hi there how does it go in wind? will it blow away
Привет друг. Какая длина одной грани см.
Is this plexiglass ? How much you pay for the it ? Thanks
Современем швы за зеленеют и почернеют, и это неизбежно))
Turn off stupid background music
that overlap is a touch of genius!!!! im gonna make the same thing now. and hotbox the shit out of it!!!
No gold and silver foil tickets?
Very interesting concept. Is it still standing? The opening seams a weak spot when the wind blows right into it. Anyway, well done!
Stuart taverner Dome build 1 I love your enthusiasm and Bucky Fuller would be proud of you but It's a pity you didn't look for simpler cheaper stronger methods to build a hex dome. If you're still thinking of building homes for the future then maybe we could work together. 😉 Joe Dee aka the Dome Geezer.
Here's hoping my idea of combining two hemispheres into a floating home! :-) by crackyyyy.... great idea! tanx
What's the average cost to build the smallest design you have ?
Hi, the cost depends on a few things... 1 - materials new materials will cost approx £1200. secondhand sourced could cost as low as around £200 2 - fabrication method. CNC shop cutting could cost up to £1000. hand cut could cost around £80 i built mine from second hand plasic sheet (£200) and got 6 panels CNC cut as templates (£60) and then cut the rest by hand. (£0). Second hand decking, £150, nuts/bolts etc £30. total was £500. new from vikingdome or hypdome as a made `kit` would have been £3500+
@@stav2421 Not bad. Fingers crossed that I can find material. I'm a DIY guy. Are they holding very well over time ?
Can you make it water proph for rain ?
it is waterproof be design, rain runs down the outside, the panels overlap from the top down.
@@stav2421 I think I meant to say weather proph as it would be my office and sleeping carders.
Cómo lo anclan al piso?
Using metal angle brackets, attached to the dome and screwed to the decking.
I want to buy,please tell me the payment process,because I have to build for my children, please I need help
Hi, please check the link to my Etsy shop page in the description of each video. creativprojects.etsy.com
@@stav2421you are selling the plans, how much does the material cost. This is passive aggressive scamming. If someone can build off just the plans they can design it for free LOL
I don't understand how it stops the wind from going between the panels? Is there a gap?
There is a 4mm gap between some panels. But I have filled most of these with a thin shim. Others I have left open to aid aid flow and reduce condensation.
I have some more info on my website.. sites.google.com/view/diy-frameless-geodesic-domes/design?authuser=0
what plates are you using? PC? what thickness? did you cut them yourself? or can you order them?
4mm acrylic. I cut the myself.
I have made the Plans available on Etsy .. www.etsy.com/shop/CreativProjects And a website detailing more info . www.etsy.com/uk/shop/CreativProjects
@@stav2421 4mm acrylic? that is going to cost a lot.
@@xinglinjiang4952 cost me £200 in second hand acrylic from old COVID screens.
Explanation of the work of the transparent geodesic dome
Hi, if you are looking to make your own. You will need to buy the builds plans which detail the fabrication and construction methods in detail. It explains all the sizes and how the pieces fit together. www.etsy.com/shop/CreativProjects
Why there is a shorter side?
I don't understand... Maybe you can expand your question to be a bit more specific..
Thanks for sharing
Thanks for sharing
How does this have so few views, it’s brilliant! All is needed is sone form of door
I have a door now. sites.google.com/view/diy-frameless-geodesic-domes
wow awesome
Have you tried to make a dome over 7 meters in diameter this way?
Hi. Going above 7m with this particular design requires very large panels above 1200mm which is the largest sheet size commonly available - so would not be feasible. A new design with higher frequency could use smaller panels and be possible, but would be more complex to cut and build and no one has asked for this, and the cost of materials goes beyond a DIY project.
That would do my head in. Been looking at these but couldn’t cope with having to build it!
It's a DIY project really.. or you can employ someone to build them for you.
Helpful. I’m about to start,
How to measure and build it , pls help
Using cad drawings I created. More info here.. sites.google.com/view/diy-frameless-geodesic-domes/home?authuser=0

Dude you need a rivet gun:D with aluminum riveta that won't rust ugly:D
No thanks. Stainless steel nuts and bolts mean the panels are removal and can be completely dismantled if required. I've already swapped out a few panels with opening windows.
@@stav2421 I strongly disagree. Removal of aluminum rivets is easy drill them out in a few seconds if needed. Looks clean an neat. Replacement not an issue. Cool project thought.
would this work well for glamping purpose? for airbnb ?
Yes. Many companies use large versions with a middle separation wall for living/sleeping and opaque panel for privacy etc.
@@stav2421 To make a 7m dome, do you need 161 of 1m sheets?
Brilliant!!
Do you have any projects with doors?
My plans are for cutting the sheet material, I have door way entrance cutouts in the plans. And I am just working on adding cutting details for a small porch. I am using a pvc self-closing magnetic door, rather than a solid door - but that option could be added if you wanted.
I need to talk to you about some projects, would it be possible to contact you by whatsapp ? Where we can have a quick dialogue
What type of projects?
Good afternoon. Can you please tell me what material did you use? Plexiglas or polycarbonate? And its thickness?
This was acrylic, 4mm thick. More details here.. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/CreativProjects
@Stuart Great video. I have quick question, is the dome waterproof? I mean how to seal the joining edges (if your plan suggest that at all)?
The top panels overlap the lower ones, so rain runs over and down the outside only.
Great video. Has anyone finished building this recently? Can someone please give an idea of what materials to buy (apart from the plan from etsy), what amount, and possible cost?
For material costs, search sizes such as Facebook market place, I can see sheet plastic (3mm Polycarbonate) for £30 - £60 in the UK. The 4m dome will need approx 16 sheets of 4ftx6ft. £30 * 16 = £480. Other materials are approx 1200 * M4 Nuts and Bolts. And some tools to cut and drill with.
Could you make a full ball with this? I mean mathematically it is possible, but would it hold up with these materials.
It's possible to construct a full ball but would need some structural support or really thick plastic . I created plans for a 3/4 bubble style dome at 2.85m diameter, but it needed support.
Harikasınız Bravo altıgen ölçülerini verebilirmisin teşekkürler
All here. www.etsy.com/uk/shop/CreativProjects
Where did you get the plans?
Hi. I made them myself. You can buy a set from my Etsy shop... I have 3m upto 7m available. creativprojects.etsy.com
What is the snow load for these structures? I live in an area that gets a lot of snow.
That would probably need a structural engineer to calculate. Not my skill I'm afraid.
Vikingdomes have some info on ones they sell.. vikingdome.com/blogs/geodesic-dome-how-tos/aura-dome%E2%84%A2-snow-and-wind-load-standards
Would love to see what it looks like with a door
I'll upload some new content with my door progress in the next month. The weather has set back my plans.
@@stav2421 Hi.. Is this already available on etsy's 7m product? if I buy it to make the 7m dome, do I already have a template for the door? How many sheets of polycarbonate will I need?
Nice Looking !!
i hope alucobond or alluminium composite boards can be used for this right?
you could use most sheet materials, as long as they can flex about 5 degrees over each panel.
@@stav2421 does your link include cost estimations for materials and complete construction process? i am very interested in DIY building it.
How strong are these? As compared to pvc or wood framed domes? Could it take the weight of someone standing on the top?
Hi. Possibly.. I have not tried standing on it. But I can lean a step ladder against it and then lean on top of the dome to clean it. It's made from 4mm acrylic.
How much did you spend on acrrylic
Could do no cut Only engineering drill hole
Does your leak ever?
Does it leak ever?... No .. simply. The top panel overlaps the lower ones. So unless rain goes up ... It doesn't leak.
This is a really great idea. So at 27 seconds in the vid, I see a crack through the screw hole at the left of the screen. I expected to find a few of these as a result of flexing the panels like they need to be for assembly. So of all your builds so far, how many panels have developed this type of crack, and is there something you do, or suggest doing, to help avoid these occurring?
I've only built this 1 myself. There are 4 cracks on corners around the holes out of 160 off panels. I used 4mm acrylic as this was the only cheap option but 3mm Polycarbonate would be better, it's not as brittle.
Beautiful but all that plexi must be a king's ransom?
Unless you hunt around for secondhand sources. I got it all for £200.
Beautiful creation, well done.
Thanks. Want to build one ?
@@stav2421 I want 3, and more.
Excellent
