No Excuses

I forgot to buy a hose so I almost cancelled the build day, but Raquel convinced me to paint the inner small dome.

Let the Patio Begin!

     If I ever want to build a shed like structure to store the generator and some tools, I need a patio first. The shed will be something like a glorified dog house, big enough for the generator and tools, I am not sure the mixer needs more than just a place to keep it with a sturdy tarp over it. Again a nice patio area. I'll focus on surrounding the main dome and connecting the baño. Then I hope to eventually make a path to the car area, a bit of a car pad, and a path to the other end of the property, so you can skate on full moons. Yup that dream is still alive.

Corrugated plastic, leftover from guinea pig cage construction,  seriously.

Even, and level. enough for Rock & Roll!

Thank God the hose busted as I was walking to shut off the water.

What a sweet little place this is shaping up to be,

All MIxed Up!

     2 mixes, stucco around the new door frame, and 20% cement mix for the entranceway. This pour seals the door frame and the foundation rows under the door frame.

Bright hot sun today, but too windy for a cowboy hat 

They named it right, it's a Champ!

A clumpy mix is a sticky mix!

After something

when its all painted with the lime paint it will blend seamlessly, and its still wet here.

Get the Door on, Moron, Baño style

Baño dome door ON! These cheap doors seem to sag, this one just like the last one, forcing me to extend the deadbolt down and creating a small gap. No biggie, it locks and it works, its level and stays open on its own. But I may just get a carpenter to help me on the next one, so I can figure out what I am doing wrong.

 I am an Arkitekt!!!! 

$10 Iron Maiden Camo hat FTW!!!

Oh yeah, and the door's on!

I am thinking egg blue, with faux rust as a paint job, whatcha think?

The door was flush on this side, so no foam needed. I don't know what I'm doing.

sexy foam close up

Insulating foam in!

Plaster will go over the seams 

The door opens a full 90 degrees and stays open,

The jar lights do more when there is a door

The painted floor is easy to sweep clean! 

Locked and secure!
