You'd want to use an octahedron based dome which is easily divided at the hemisphere(s) into halves, or quarter spheres which is what you would want in this case. Two 1/4 spheres with a barrel vault between them. It could look like an old Airstream trailer.

I had another idea, which might be a hanging slider right over the plate for spaceman to hit out of the park. What about building two space frame geodesic half domes? One for the front. One for the rear. Then in the middle, build a spaceframe arch to connect them. Once the spaceframe is in place, you might run some electrical and perhaps some plumbing. Then use spaceman's standard dome construction technique of pouring papercrete triangles to fill in the frame. Strong. Lightweight. Fairly aerodynamic. Kind of a geodesic Airstream. --- In papercreters@yahoogroups.com, "kjtbeskimo" <vickeym@...> wrote:Not quite sure how to explain what we are thinking of. But wondering if anyone had tried making any type of building on wheels that can be hauled down the road. We are thinking of making a booth that can be hauled to craft shows or our state fair. Just wondering if anyone had tried anything of this type in papercrete and what the results were. Vickey in Alaska------------------------------------ Yahoo!
