As always, seing you smile at a project coming together is the highlight of my week. I know the feeling - that grin moment is the best part of my own builds. Cheers Laura- thanks for sharing and Happy Sunday :)
You're a real hybrid. Part designer, part artist. These would also make great solar powered light domes and would look terrific in clumps in a large garden at night.
Maybe it's the first time we see you without cap. I like to see your smile when you finish a work. I like your style. Thank you for all. Stay the same.
Loving the linen press in the background! Got the chance to restore one of them the other week - an amazing piece of furniture. Can’t wait to see the tiny trailer completely finished
Laura, Another sketch idea, to searching for materials, measuring and cutting, to assembly, and finally to fruition. You are amazing! Thanks for sharing, Felix
I know I'm echoing what is already being said in the comments, but I saw the original state you found this stuff in on your IG stories. That you had the creativity to visualize this end result is just astonishing. Let alone being able to make it. You never ceases to amaze me.
Brilliant. I've made geodesic domes, I've made greenhouses, I've tried to upcycle metal pallet straps, but I never came up with this idea. It's so obvious it's genius. I feel like I've just seen the wheel for the first time.
Wow, best geodesic dome ever! Buckminster would have been proud. I really thought that you were going to make the wooden base into a turntable, it even had the axle mounting point right there.
It's so satisfying when it starts coming together, right!? We built a 15' diameter one a few years back using emt conduit and a several-tonne press to flatten an bend all the ends. It served as a tea temple at Arise festival for 3 years.

I love this project. Buckminster Fuller is credited with popularizing geodesic domes (and the name), although he did not build the first one. When I was a young boy, Fuller came to give a lecture in Dallas. I remember playing on the large geodesic dome that was set up in his honor.
I pictured that going somewhere in the horse box camper as a window. Like an R2D2 head kind of... I really liked it and i thought it was very hard to do, but watching this makes me wanna build my own r2d2 window.
What a cool project and what a totally awesome use of recycled material. You are so creative. The look on your face when you neared completion of the dome is priceless. I love the joy that you exhibit when you create. You show a true passion for your work. Stay safe.
I find it so amazing that you can see these things out in the world and put them together in a couple of days! (And edit a video together!) Love the space age feet you gave it too! 😊👍
Laura when you picked up the strips of riveted tin and it hung down i thought at that very moment that you was going to change your design and make an umbrella 🌂 in the same way!!! 💯% 👍🇬🇧
Wow! How magnificent & fabulous in thought, execution & economy of materials, brilliant. I have for some time thought to built a structure to house my telescope & this gives me some practical ideas. Thank you for sharing!
0:26 the heat treated pallet stamp is a grate way to find out who made a part like a pallet or box for shiping, the two letter at start in this case CN is china, the numbers next to it will link back to the maker of the iteam. may come in handy to someone out there :)
Como se nota que disfrutas el trabajo, se te nota en la cara de alegría que trasmitís al ver realizado lo que haces, seguí así que me gusta lo que haces.El único favor que te quería pedir que pongas traducción a los vídeos.
The 3 strut lengths wouldnt produce a flat base dome but you solved it by adding the kneewall..nice job. The only thing i`d do differently is put the bolts in from the outside (the exposed threads could be a potential hazard for kids etc) and use a rubber washer between the glass and the steel washer to allow for the metal expansion/contraction in very cold or very hot weather.
What a piece of work!!! But you should prepare some more glass as means to close the open parts. Otherwise your greenhouse wont keep heat overnight when it cools down in a few weeks.
As a professional metalworker I can say, never ever drill sheet metal like this unless you want your pillar drill to turn into a blender and chew-up your hands. As a twist drill breaks though the far-side of a thin sheet of metal, (if it isn't clamped-down) it will cause it to ride up the drill-bit and then start rotating at 1000 rpm. If your flesh is in the way of this, the results are very messy.
A punch is a much safer alternative! There is vast array of punching options available, from hand held units to bench mounted models and of course powered models. I love Laura’s projects though, especially the “oh wow!” facial expression!
Laura! Bless your heat! That one was a LOT of work. Good Job! Those light reflectors as stands, brilliant. It looks like the dome on Tesla''s Wardenclyffe Tower! or maybe an Edwardian Space Capsule.
I feel like you could have used clicos instead of using the pop rivets as temporary rivets. That's what clicos are for in the first place! Excellent idea though. I love the idea of reusing that strapping material. That stuff is everywhere and always gets thrown out.
Your videos are full of the deep joy that comes from making something on your own.
Reusing that cargo banding is brilliant. And I love the vertical pieces to raise the dome up. Well done as always Laura!

I agree... the best thing of your projects is your smile when you see it done!!
I am geodesic worker and I make objects with trash and other resources too! Congratulations! You are fantastic! A big hug from Brasil!!
And I hope your plants grow happy ! Smudo the best . Thank you Laura !
Maybe it's the first time we see you without cap.
I like to see your smile when you finish a work.
I like your style.
Thank you for all.
Stay the same.
I don't need to find words, I'll just point people towards your smile...says it all!
So true. Laura was grinning the entire time.
Yes. That smile speaks volumes.
C♥️☺️
What a fantastic little greenhouse! And the music was a welcome relief from the techno-electronic you hear in all videos across YT.
Loving the linen press in the background! Got the chance to restore one of them the other week - an amazing piece of furniture. Can’t wait to see the tiny trailer completely finished
A sense of wonder, shop, tools, imagination and a good dog. What could be better? Love your videos.
I can't believe it! I've had one of these in my notebook since i saw the camping domes
Wow, brilliant! A classical Laura project. A piece of art, made out of scraps. I love it.
The aestethics of your videos is magic
Thank God you use your creative genius for good. Excellent as always, Laura.
Laura, Another sketch idea, to searching for materials, measuring and cutting, to assembly, and finally to fruition. You are amazing!
Thanks for sharing, Felix
Such joy!
Be well, be safe, and take good care!

Nice Project! Reusing trash to make something useful is something the world needs to do more of
This project is AMAZING! and so are you. I love your smile & the way your face lights up when a project is finished.
Sitting here in Orlando with the biggest smile on my face at this wonderful project and the mind and talent that brought it all together.
Just Wow! The coolest greenhouse I’ve ever seen!
Brilliant. I've made geodesic domes, I've made greenhouses, I've tried to upcycle metal pallet straps, but I never came up with this idea. It's so obvious it's genius. I feel like I've just seen the wheel for the first time.
What I most like is your expression of utter joy as you see it come together!
Wow, best geodesic dome ever! Buckminster would have been proud. I really thought that you were going to make the wooden base into a turntable, it even had the axle mounting point right there.
Superb build as always using trash to treasure so to speak. Nothing is too hard for you. Love it 🙂
Ich bin sprachlos ! Es ist genial ! Beautiful and so well thought. Bravo
You really can’t make a bad video. Love everything you do. Absolutely amazing. Well done and thank you
Laura, I love watching the enthusiasm on your face as you're building. Nice looking dome! It turned out very sturdy!
Bucky would be proud.

I love everything about this. Everything.
What german school did you steal that giant Geodreieck from xD Seeing that made me really nostalgic
@@peterl0815 haha, ja xD Aber eigentlich schon praktisch so ein Ding ...
Die werden in den Schulen derzeit reihenweise entsorgt, da sie für die neuen digitalen Tafeln nicht mehr zu gebrauchen sind.
or dutch...
@@Yllusion o.O Nicht in Bayern. Wir haben einfach die digitalen Flächen hinter oder oberhalb der normalen Tafel.

I can't find words to express how amazed I am. So fabulous!
Brilliant! I love this. From trash to treasure. Reuse, repurpose, recycle!
Your notes at 0:46 made me look up ISRU, and now I'm reading about NASA's Artemis project to return to the moon. Thanks for the rabbit hole! :D
Awesome! This is such a perfect project for her because it is simultaneously very hippyish and very German.
What a cool project and what a totally awesome use of recycled material. You are so creative.
The look on your face when you neared completion of the dome is priceless. I love the joy that you exhibit when you create. You show a true passion for your work. Stay safe.
You should write sweep floor on the broom.
Very cool build! The use of the rivets to keep everything in place for the original layout was really smart!! Great job Laura!
That's a LOT of work. Fantastic result. Brilliant.
Yet another supreme idea that became a uniquely practical reality.
Very well done, Laura 👍
I find it so amazing that you can see these things out in the world and put them together in a couple of days! (And edit a video together!)
Love the space age feet you gave it too! 😊👍
Need a dome for a small fig tree. Thanks Laura. That dome was solid BEFORE the glass went in.....WAY Cool.
I really enjoy your videos because you always make something amazing, you are happy while you work, and the music is always upbeat. Thank you.
Cool transformation, you have the best trash selection.
I like the nail and glass break trick. Keep up the great work! I appreciate the time you have put in to making these videos.
I love the re-use of metal strapping!
looks like it took forever, now it is obvious Art aaand useful. I love it!
Another great 👍 project Laura as always and made from spare parts and odds and sods that were lying around !!!!.
Absolutely brilliant, beautiful, and inspiring work! Totally a Vintage Laura video here. Love getting right into the action!!!!
Your smile is all the words this needs 👍
Laura when you picked up the strips of riveted tin and it hung down i thought at that very moment that you was going to change your design and make an umbrella 🌂 in the same way!!! 💯% 👍🇬🇧
I always forget about my riveter. This was a great use of it.
Wow! How magnificent & fabulous in thought, execution & economy of materials, brilliant. I have for some time thought to built a structure to house my telescope & this gives me some practical ideas. Thank you for sharing!
Firstly, great tunes! And secondly, great build! I could feel the excitement at every step. Hoping to see more cool "Green" builds! Really enjoyed it!
I think this is one of the coolest things I have seen you build, You are an amazing maker! Congrats!
Whoa, band strapping - what a cool idea!!!!
Wow. You have a lot of work into this project. Great job. I love it
Wow, diesmal hast du dich selbst übertroffen! Gefällt mir suuuuuper!
This came out so cool! And you found a use for metal straps! Love it!
That moment when your inner child realizes is still there with a little extra genius... and you smile.
Nice work on recycling material and getting the math correct! That turned out awesome.
That is great, looks really cool. It looked heavy though.
0:26 the heat treated pallet stamp is a grate way to find out who made a part like a pallet or box for shiping, the two letter at start in this case CN is china, the numbers next to it will link back to the maker of the iteam. may come in handy to someone out there :)
Thank You for that education !!!

Ottima idea per una mini serra! Complimenti per la realizzazione 😉. From Italy
Genial como siempre !! Saludos desde Argentina !
Buckminster fuller would be proud. Great video and I loved the music too!
C'est superbe,j'adore,et tout cela avec de la récup ,bravo à bientôt salut Jeannot 🛠😉
Awesome and fun to watch! You put a smile on my face! Thank you.
Eres super talentosa increíble lo que logras, belleza en todo su esplendor, felicitaciones hermoso tu trabajo quede encantado 👏💯👍

How do you drill sheet metal in a safe way?

Laura, Buckminster Fuller would have been proud!
great, I think it's great, can also be used as a dome light
C'est tout juste magnifique!quel travail d'orfevre🥰😉👏👌👌
Very cool, what a great shop! Thanks!
Cool! Looks great, and what's more: Finally a film without Festool commercial!
Smudo looks super interested in the some, or maybe more in the lizards running around it
This is so creative and beautiful! Wow!!
Hermoso proyecto Laura, Amo tu creatividad... Saludos desde Chile.. 😘👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
My Maker love Equality shirt arrived on Friday, thank you and thanks for the stickers
Just when I thought this had yet to be done the tube algo nudges me here 😵🥳🤠
Laura! Bless your heat! That one was a LOT of work. Good Job!
Those light reflectors as stands, brilliant. It looks like the dome on Tesla''s Wardenclyffe Tower! or maybe an Edwardian Space Capsule.
Incredible talent, incredible life!
I love this! Good job, Laura!
I love everything you do Ms Laura, but this one was particularly brilliant!
Lateral thinking 🤔
Experimenting,
Teaching yourself as you go along.
What fun!
Great video! Your videos always feel like short films to me, I love it. Good job!
Hi Laura, toll was Du aus mit den alten Gläsern von unserem Gewächshaus gemacht hast
Ja! Endlich habe ich ein gutes Projekt für die Gläser gefunden :)
So dope! That would look amazing in any garden or on the surface of Mars! Love it!
Brilliant idea and result! Congratulations :)
I feel like you could have used clicos instead of using the pop rivets as temporary rivets. That's what clicos are for in the first place! Excellent idea though. I love the idea of reusing that strapping material. That stuff is everywhere and always gets thrown out.
Das Grinsen ist echt klasse Wie sagte schon Hanibal Smith "Ich liebe es wenn ein Plan funktioniert"
Really cool. Nice job. You are a talent!
