looks like Christmas Tree Moss on the tree and ricia for the 'grass'. In order to make the ricia grow like that instead of floating you need a good C02 system, which is dangerous for the shrimp, and bright lights and good aquatic fertilizer. Looks simple but a nice tank like that is actually hard as shit to keep in that condition.

It looks like a couple of sets of rope lights attached (probably by a hook or brace, the lights would be too hot for glue) to the back of some standard mirrors. You'd have to place the mount on the bit of wood in the middle, but I'm not sure how you would go about attaching the wood without cracking the glass.

PVC fumes from being cut (using a miter saw or sawzall) are pretty fucking bad for you. Smoke or heat can release toxins which can fuck your lungs up pretty badly without you knowing. PVC, if used for stability or water transportation, isn't likely to do anything. What do you use it for?

I'd love to build one and turn it into a greenhouse. I have the space and the materials are cheap enough.

I've found a couple of calculators that should make it easier regarding strout sizes, but I still don't know how I could make the connectors, and welding is out of the question for me (for the time being).

Yeah, I saw his videos, but he has welded connectors, which are the problem for me. I've seen pvc connectors that supposedly withstand the weight of the structure, but I'm not sure how much maintenance those would require. I guess I'll just have to learn how to weld and do the same.

>>15965
I know they can be made of metal pipes, but I discarded this since the idea would be to make it out of wood, so that windows and doors can be integrated more easily. Being a greenhouse, I also find that wood would be more appropriate.

For a summer tent, however, I did find some examples of domes with an interior hanging lining that are also portable. Pic related.

Unfortunately, this image >>14032 are as close to instructions as you'll get, since the artist hasn't released full instructions nor measurements. But, like I said, it's not too hard to figure out if you just look at it a bit.
You'll need two of each of the larger pieces, and eight of each of the smaller pieces. The black lines in the smaller pieces show where you need to make a groove, and you can see how they interlock in the picture.
I'm not sure if they're glued together or not in the pictures, but I think some hotglue would be nice for reinforcement.
Still hopin' I'll be able to get enough good scrap cardboard to make some, I could use some shelves.

It's pretty self-explanatory....just find some oval shaped mirrors (can probably find some at a thrift shop), glue some LED lights to the back (you can find those at Radio Shack or at an auto shop, since people like to put LEDs on their cars) and add a block of wood to the center of the back so that you can hang it easily without the LEDs getting in the way.

That guy may have had the idea independently, but many people make them commercially now. Do a Google Image Search and some even have awesome backing (I assume either painted wood, or maybe even plastic or plexiglass if they wanted to get a little fancier.)

I bet if you turned one wall into a hanging space with little/no shelves, and made the shelf-side deeper, with sturdier drawers/shelves, the tradeoff would leave more room inside.

Also, double-bonus points if you lop off the top, expand it a foot total, cut divots along the top, and drop it back on.

Easy air-flow with enough overhang to keep rain out.

Lots of stuff that's harmful to your health has been used in things that contain food, drinks, etc. BPA is used in a lot of plastic cups, ice cube trays, etc. You have to be an informed consumer, because the people selling you "Made In China" shit don't care if we live or die.

I'm 5'22" and I have it just perfect so I can sit straight with an inch to spare underneath, and slouch comfortably up top when I'm reading.

Sadly I think it basically screams "forever alone" but I decided when I made it that I was going to disregard women and acquire living space instead. Good trade-off so far, $100 in lumber and construction way more cost-effective than any bitch I've ever known anyways.
