Congratulations to you and your wife for having the courage to try that! You both have a great attitude and you will be successful on the next venture. I hope to have a glass dome someday!
Hi! I've just discovered your channel recently and I am amazed. I love all of the beautiful zomes and domes. Thank you for sharing the knowledge. I don't have the equipment and the space for it right now but I can't wait to build one in the future.
I'm very interested in this future community that you're trying to build. I strongly suggest that you track the attention of various outside-the-box thinking lawyers and legal teams to look into how we can ratify the increasing issues around zoning laws and NIMBYs.
Agree. I’m a fan and follower, and a real estate lawyer living in Hawaii and practicing law in Texas, as well as a diy builder. I know the zoning laws intimately in Hawaii and Texas. Happy to contribute, including reaching to find any willing real estate lawyers for Washington State, because zoning and real estate land use are very complex, and location specific. 🤟 Aloha!
This is the only thing that may cause me aggravation. I have purchased the plot in an area designated an sssi in the Uk. Site of special scientific interest. It is a garden paradise landlocked in the center of intensively farmed arable land that is ploughed all around as far as the surrounding area. Back in the day the farmer sub divided an apoximate 50 acre feild and sold individual lots so becoming a kind of trailer park community. 20 years later when all the gardens became established and people started living there in cabins and the like the municipality evicted everyone bulldozed everything and burnt all the cabins and trailers. Another 10 years later the gardens sit virtually abandoned all but the odd plot holder who mows his lawn for leisure. Only for what the people planted is the place fit for wildlife and nature. All around is intensively farmed mono cultre. But this is acceptable and man is no part of nature according to the burocrats rules. My dome is going to be built here without asking for permission. My argument is I am the scientist living in my natural habitat and this is the site of my scientific interest . All zoning laws I am flipping into my favor for my full protection I am not going to fight them I am going to correct them and at the same time remove the property from the land registry by gifting it in trust to the named beneficiaries. The stewards/scientist/and species of man/woman. These are the areas you find organic community. Not squatters gypsies or travellers where everything must be on wheels to pass zoning laws.no no this man is standing his ground upright and proud on his lawfull freehold domain and gifting it in trust to such community.
I feel like you should be working on a full scale Dome/Zome house with potentially several linked together. If you were willing to stay put that is. Would be one heck of a proof of concept, as well as a showcase of your impact on society.
Hey Johnny, I've recently just purchased some property out near moclips, large clearcut, and we are planning on building several domes there starting this winter..in the rain.. I will get in touch with you soon.
Love it ! Just got you're plans and am stoked to start convert an unlimited supply of oak pallets into amazing domes and zomes. I was messing around on sketch-up trying to figure all the bevels out when I discovered your channel, hel yea I'll gladly glean for yalls pioneering on this one. Blessings on the trail blazing !
I'm love your energy and optimism for this next season of life. Thanks for sharing your story. I can't wait to see what amazing things you do. 🤟👊 -Mark
Sounds like a crazy time. I'm proud of you for pushing through, for continuing to work on the plans side), and for showing up for this video! Love the new direction on domes and looking forward to the newest designs.
Good on you both for having the courage to go explore your dreams! I lived on a small sailboat for a few years and worked on it a lot. It was at a dock and still it’s not easy… on the hook would be a nightmare. I completely get it. Excited to se some of your future projects. Love your work! 🙂
Haha yes it was a challenge. But hey you made it work for years so that's a big achievement! I hope we get to try again under different circumstances. Cheers!
So glad to hear all your news, and I'm looking forward to more. I've bought one of your plans and hope to get another, and use them both (fingers crossed for that land!)...and yes, I did hit that bell to make sure my notifications were on!
Amazing amazing work! This channel is such an inspiration and I'm excited to hopefully tap into the resources of the community you're building, and add my own energy in time! The sauna dome also looks great!
Hey there! Love your Trillium Domes and your videos! You should put a link to your other channel on here because I do a search and all I find is the Johnny Depp trial. Take care! *hugz*
Glad you are still Dome-ing. I come from a sailing community and have seen many people cruise for a while and then swallow the anchor. Nothing wrong with that. Life is for learning. Anyway, I have had this idea for a long time but never tried it and I would like to hear you thoughts on it. A dome constructed out of structural foam panels. Beveled edges, obviously.
@@trilliumdomes I have imagined joining the panels with L flashing metal along the edges, forcing the metal to conform to the greater-than-90 angle, fastened with roofing nails (?). At the vertices, I imagine cutting circular metal discs with a slit and forming a cone over the metal ends, fastened with sheet-metal screws. Essentially, a "frame" would be constructed over the "skin." For a long time I have wanted to do a mock-up of a vertex area. Do you follow my idea? I once built a house with SIP. BTW I am the guy that made a dome model at age 10 in 1960. I live in WA and maybe we could meet sometime.
It's ok to to retrace, this is consolidation to build the foundation for the next leg up in your journey. You can't get there without it. #muchlove #godspeed
I see you coming over to Australia to help set up a similar space. I already have connections to people with the land, so let me know and we can work explore some ideas. Love your work.
Congratulations on your adventures. Nothing wrong at all with trying something different, even if it doesn't work out. I'm so in love with your designs. Please design me a house.
Happy New Year I have one question if you take two climbing 10 ft domes and put them together will it work as a 20-foot dome or will it turn into a giant ball
Hi bro, good to see you're keeping busy and spreading the joy around. I want to attend your exhibition centre and show off my 'bog standard domes' for the cheap end of the market. I'm aiming at the complete 50 ft width dome home for no more than 3k USD or GBP. I'm already talking to some island people for the purpose of visiting them this year and building and training teams of builders. Keep up the good work bro, this God's work. and all of you lazy spectators out there reading this, stop clapping and fill your hands with tools and get cracking. 😊 Joe the dome_geezer
Thanks for the update, your next steps sound amazing! Keep up those amazing designs, I’m a customer for purchasing plans - and should you reach the stage of selling kits, know that I’d be happy to be a volunteer ambassador for Texas and Hawaii, I live in the Aloha state and practice real estate law in the Lone Star State. Best to you, from a big fan 🤟, with much aloha
Love your Domes 🥰QUESTION Could you make some plans for 2" 4" and 6" Domes for Rabbits Cats Dogs etc As would love to build one for my Cat and Kittens so they can be outside and dry and my other QUESTION Could you make plans for a half Dome so it's more like a Conservatory/Sunroom that could be added on to my Sitting Room Please 🥰🥰🥰jemima¿.?
Hey! I can do custom designs but they take awhile. BUT you can scale the plans easily with quick math to make them smaller! All angles stay the same. And making a half dome is an simple as leaving some panels out!
Is a 40 ft. Dome possible? I have a peice of property to promote central pa. Amish country.house/ greenhouse recessed in the ground already dug out. On 1 acre. Need to go to site and get plans. I love your designs. Thanks charles gillespie
How do I get involved? I have been designing a community and I would love to exchange ideas and be involved in any projects I can. Hope to work with you soon.
I've been following you for years...love the update. I look forward to seeing your progress!
We have been sailing last 5 years...2 seasons in Grenada. We now sailed to Europe. Two kids. Watching your videos for next build! All the best
Thank you very much! Stay safe out there!
Dude i totally so glad stumbled on your TH-cam! I am so buying your plan on a greenhouse type dome. Thank you for sharing your experiences.🤙
We Just built a some for my Barbershop on the river. It’s BEAUTIFUL!!
that's awesome!
Dude.... I saw your zome! I was driving to Long Beach and I saw it as I cross the bridge!!! Please send me an email!
Thanks so much for your work. Just catching up on dome structures and really appreciate your educational commitment.
Thanks
I really appreciate that! I will have more content coming soon, I promise!
The Adventure Continues! I love your work and feel grateful every day to be connected!
You rock, Will! Looking very much forward to seeing your upcoming project! Its gonna be crazy!
I just found this channel and am obsessed

Aloha, you are a inspiration. Thank you for sharing your craft. I’m hopeful to build a dome now.
You got this!

Thank you! Yes that's the goal!
Good luck with new endeavors.
I would love to see plans for a passive greenhouse like dome with a thermal mass space included into the design in order to orient it appropriately?
Dome framing with cob construction filled in, perhaps? I like your mindset

Time to focus!

Yes a SIP dome has been on my mind. Need to draw it out. Thanks for the encouraging words!

Yeo we have 40'plans on our website

Im curious- what software You use for projects?
It depends. Fusion360 is my go to but I make all the sketchup files available for the designs on my website
what is wide dome say 20 ft with only 9 ft ceiling basically short height in your plans
Whats you question?
@@trilliumdomes which dome plan you have that is 20 ft round with 9 foot ceiling
do not want it to tall
Kits?! 🎉
Oh yeah 😎
