Our messages crossed each other. 1/2" EMT is indeed easy to find and drill,
cut, etc.
How easy was this construction to keep dry? Any closeups of the roof?
Especially where it meets the walls, please.

Heat is the main issue in Southern California. Even near the coast, there
is oppressive heat far more often than ruinous cold weather.
I'm about to experiment with creating a hex-pod outside, using rebar as
framework for concrete-impregnated fabric, the whole to be mauled into

Both visually and functionally, this sure looks like a clerestory yurt to
me! A "second story" which provides light and possible ventilation is at
least as old as the oldest temples in Egypt. It's a wonderful idea, an
ancient, proven idea. Humans feel better with sunlight.

Gridbeam's pretty good for building just about anything human scale. I
sure would like to see more gridbeam ideas spread around. DIYers also need
way more help with practical methods and skills with electricity, attaching
motors to things, using surplus industrial supplies and housing systems

Well now, the topic (which you introduced) was the idea that one had to
spend a hundred hours sit-down time with Sketchup because powerful software
demands that kind of time. ANY Ashlar product is an argument in favor of
not accepting that idea as gospel. The 1998 version of Drafting Assistant

But how well does it work? Did you check it out? How large a space did
it cool and how much cooling did it do? Was there a water-supply problem?

This is a well known scam. It's been around a while. Variations which
have proven dangerous include a story line where someone's grandchild,
nephew or similarly vulnerable personage has supposedly been arrested by
some outlaw state or gang and the person contacting the relative was

I am away from home just now and ended up buying a new computer (long
story) so I'm a tad out of synch. I looked at the H13 video and will look
at it several times. It looks as if one has to bend over to get into the

Hi--
The term " isopropyl alcohol" refers to what's usually called
rubbing alcohol. It's the common alcohol you see in drug stores,
supermarkets, etc.
