  Frankie,

  RE: Bumping your head -

  Yeah - there are several types of domes... oblate, spherical, etc. that may alter the curvature of the dome.

  Or... you could add a 4-foot (or 6-foot) stem wall - which raises the straight portion of the wall off the ground - prior to its' curvature.

  Actually - I've been in several of these domes, and if it's done properly, and the furniture arranged properly - you don't even have to worry about the curve... unless you play for a basketball team and are over 7'0" tall. *grin*

  Like someone else already pointed out... they are bigger on the inside than they look.

  Regards,

  Jim TX

  Jim, That is so cool! I've never even heard of these types of homes before, so thanks for sharing. And enjoy yourself...there's nothing like fulfilling a dream! Take care and we expect all sorts of stories when you get back! :)

  Have fun, James! You've been wanting to do this for some time! Good for you that you are actually going to "get your hands in the mud" or whatever they call it! It's also one step closer to making your dream come true and that's awesome!
