Two Jay, I haven't mentioned it yet.  ;-)  The dome "pattern" repeats so there the sphere is in 5 identical patterns.  the southern facing 3/5ths will be covered with twin-walled polycarbonate sheeting.  82% light transmission, R value is a whopping 1.8.  It's made by GE (AKA Lexan).  10 year warranty against yellowing and hale damage!  The northern 2/5ths (the side with the shed attached), will be covered in plywood and insulated.  If you want to blow through 3 grand real quick, by polycarbonate!!!

Good deal!  I thought we'd have to wait 'till Wednesday ;)

Rob, you may have mentioned this another post, but what are you sheeting the structure with?

From the road, you couldn't tell anything was happening in the area, then yesterday a dome showed up.  It was entertaining watching people slam on their brakes to see this "thing".  I'm sure they were all thinking "WTF"  ;-)

Absolutely amazing Rob.  I've been waiting for this photo! 

It very well should be the talk of the town...
