Hi Ken and group,

Sounds like you have a good start and have most of the material to take up any free time that comes up.

I'm working to build a double pipe frame dome insulated with papercrete and skinned in cement soaked burlap. What did you find as a good source for burlap?

I've too have been working on the gathering of materials and tools, and now have a 2K pound hammer press set up with dies to press the EMT pipe. In the time it took to do all that I could have easily created the frames by hand! I guess I wanted to also develop the capability to do more.

Some say the paper only gets better as it's aged in the weather, so I'd just cover it enough to keep it from blowing around.

Good luck with your projects and put that arm in a sling. If you don't give it a long rest it'll never get better.
