Geodesic Sphere
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have an idea and want you to make my vision a reality. (at least on paper that is)
I would like to get an initial design for 10 metre diameter, 25 metre diameter spheres, and 50 metre diameter spheres.
I would like spheres to float and then be able to be submerged. (I think this can be done by flooding pipes??)
200mm (od) HDPE SR17 pipe comes in 6m, 9m, and 12m lengths (water pipe). I believe the higher the SDR the more floatable.
Would need to be able to walk on the finished product for cleaning purposes.
These would be in the ocean so they need to be durable.
Think of Ikea products. Would like to be able to have a simple construction. But on a much larger scale.
I have lots of ideas about this project.
One thing I am unsure about is the outside net (which doesn't have to be netting) to stop fish from swimming away.
It will need access doors. Do we need to discuss the joints??
Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have.
