Geodesic Dome Blueprints
These Blueprint Sets contain saw settings and triangle details to produce your own geodesic dome from available materials. The smaller domes can be built with a skill saw and hand saw or power miter saw for the angle cuts & a table saw for the rip cuts but I recommend a radial arm saw for the side and center piece cuts on all the domes.
Here is an example of the blueprints. Each set comes with the booklet "Building Geodesic Domes" which contains construction details and a shop worksheet.
You can build a 3/8's sphere dome which is 75 triangles less opening triangles left out or a 5/8's dome which is a total of 105 triangles. Each set of plans listed below show what details are included including steel frame full triangle windows, base wall details and extension drawings. On domes larger than 12' foundation layout drawings are included along with crawl space or basement plans. I have built several homes and as a lead carpenter I know what you need in easy to understand prints. All the measurements have been converted to the nearest 1/16'th of an inch - not a decimal number as seen in some other prints. If you have any questions - and I know some of the prints are a sizeable investment - e-mail or call and I will be happy to talk about the dome or A-Frame you are building. So far everyone who has bought plans has been happy with them and the price. There is a lot of work to draw up the plans and do all the proofs on the measurements. A typical set of custom plans will take me around 40 hours to produce. Good luck with your project and be extra careful while building and using power tools.
