And so much more!
Greenhouse by Bearfoot. I constructed curved Gothic arch's in the shop 10'w x 12'hImpressive. What manufacture is your greenhouse?
That is a thing of beauty!Greenhouse by Bearfoot. I constructed curved Gothic arch's in the shop 10'w x 12'h
Due to old phone now in lake bottom, lost a lot of photos.
View attachment 337953 Greenhouse is 18' x 40', I excavated six feet deep, placed two zones of 4" perforated drain tube. Back filled a couple feet and placed more drain tube. Outside walls of foundation have 4" foam insulation. Drain tube run into 55 gallon drum manifolds. The system is called a climate battery. When hot, fans blow heat into the ground, under the greenhouse. Cool air is returned on the opposite side.
Back half is shed construction insulated. 55 gallon white drums can be seen on left & right. Fans blow from the back & exit on the triple wall polycarbonate.

Wow!! Very impressive. The craftsmanship of the arches had caught my eye. Did you use steam to get the curves in the arches?Greenhouse by Bearfoot. I constructed curved Gothic arch's in the shop 10'w x 12'h

That stinks. My BIL asked to have my kids dorm fridge and I gave it to him since both kids are in apartments. He keeps it by the pool for beer. Daughter asked for me to bring it up to her apartment a couple weeks ago. Ugh.Went out to pick cherry tomatoes and decided to hide out in the house today. Way too hot to do anything. Been waiting for a part for my fridge to get here so I can see if it will work again or if I have to buy a new one. Stuffed everything in the ancient spare in the basement and have a little dorm fridge up here for drinks. Guess who just sold a perfectly fine fridge I could have used if needed?

Very nice, what kind of panels for the greenhouse covering? Can't tell if its single layer or the closed cell insulated type.No steam. I wanted a bigger greenhouse. Internet surfing, I got ideas. It looked cool. so I wanted to do it, my style. First time try.
After a bunch of math and drawing on grid paper, I built a jig on the shop floor. All wood glued & screwed, bent with clamps around the jig. A lot of up and down, from the floor, with knee pads. Lot of up and down on ladders, constructing. A great workout last past summer! A solo build.
