Since you have a Mr. Burnes, wouldn’t the second stove be Mrs. Burnes? Nice work, looking great!

No, I’m not putting in ANY windows. I’m just going to make it so incredibly dark inside that I can never see, and there’s no warm sunlight coming in. I’m also wrapping the place in celophane to make it airtight so I suffocate, and uhh… what else. Oh, I’m also stabbing my own eyeballs out with a plastic spoon.
heh heh. Sorry for the sarcasm. Thats the 400th time I’ve been asked about windows.

Are there going to be windows? I’m assuming you’ll do them last, like you did with the banana building.

Plus, you can see the evolution of the finished product. It makes for great history. (not to mention fun monkeybars to climb) Keep up the great work! It looks like you’ll be buttoned up soon. I bet you guys can’t wait to have the cold oujtside where it belongs.

I don’t know if you’ve seen the homestar runner (.com
) site, but the character Strongbad on there once painted a one armed dragon called Trogdor, the burninator. So that’s what I think you should call your monster.

3:54 – 4:09, I think I saw the Elf that’s gone missing from Santa’s workshop, It’s looks just like the picture on the back of a quart of Holiday egg nog carton. Only the one in the video seems happier.

i was thinking the stove could be Bernie. Or in a biblical reference you could name it 666 (the beast). Since it is a big stove after all. big, beast….it’s a thought.

Ya I know, but is a nice thought. If he where to put rafters in there, and braced the side walls more he could prob do it.

I think the dome frame is what is holding it all up. The struts he put on the outside are just to attach the panels onto. I don’t think they are structural, or strong enough to hold up floors.

looks great but is the insulation on the super panels going to make up for the lost greenhouse heating effect?

Hmmmmm just had a thought. Maybe when you get this all done you can remove the dome from the inside and rebuild it right beside the now robot control tower.
