In this video I show you step by step how to build a geodesic dome using the most beautiful, least expensive method that exists.

I have been designing and building wooden geodesic domes for years. Due to popular demand I have come out with plans for my most popular designs, and will be adding more. The techniques I present in this document will allow a hobbyist or professional of any skill level to build an incredibly unique a beautiful geodesic dome.

Included in the plans are all the specifications and measurements needed to complete the project, a list of needed tools, a materials list, and a thorough 15-page step-by-step walkthrough of how to build the dome of your dreams!

Quick overview of time, materials and tools:

--Tools needed: Beyond a table saw, miter saw and screw gun, only very basic tools are required.

--Material cost: Depending on where you source materials the 15' and 20' Dome will cost around $500-$1000 in materials. 10' Dome around $300-$600

--Time to build: This varies wildly between people. Give yourself a few weeks to complete if building in your spare time. But something like the 10' dome can be done in 2 or 3 days once you get the hang of the process.

These ideas are backed up by years of experience and many happy customers. After being asked online endlessly for tutorials and details, I have finally given it the time, so that the magic of dome building with this simple and beautiful method can be shared far and wide. IF you run into any trouble, don't hesitate to reach out.

These structures can be used for green houses, sauna, cabin, tiny house, glamping, off grid, trellis, garden art, etc!
