G'day Steve,
This sounds interesting........
I have been toying with making a 'carport' dome
from plywood skin only (as a bit of a practice for the real thing).
Would you mind giving some more
details..........perhaps a pic. or two?
Thanx,
Andrew

Subject: starplate
I just set up a starplate building as a
shelter for some small vehicles
and yard stuff. It is a well thought out
product with a lot of potential for
small domes up to 17 ft. in diameter
and 12 ft. high. Some helpful
instructions, diagrams and templates come
with the set of 11 hubs. This is
enough hubs to make an icosahedron with
one vertex (and 5 struts) removed
to make a pentagonal floor. This
product has been around for decades. I used
canvas for a roof and left the
sides open.
