It should cost around Ł350 in materials and about two weeks to build this dome. You will need some accurate wood machining tools but unlike other dome structures you only have to cut one angle on all the frame timber, this makes it much easier to put together. You will also have to make some patterns so all the triangle frames are the same. Other than that it's a fairly straightforward DIY project.
