The latest up date is 16th of this mth, but I'll believe that when I have it in my hands.

Got the quote for the 2 x 40 ft containers and 12mtr x 12 mtr double truss dome, that was actually cheaper than the single truss dome because the freight from Qld pushed it up $440 more than the double truss unit from Shepperton that I will drive over and pick up in the truck ...... then the fun part of putting it together, but it should give me 6.8mtrs clearance in the centre of the dome, so high enough to walk on the Winnie roof with a harness attached to the truss above me to gently lower me to the ground if I fall off the Winnie roof .....you know the drill, just a bit slower than free fall :roll:

https://www.qualitydomesdirect.com.au/p ... ce=bochure 7th photo shows how I plan to mount it, on the outside of the containers so it provides a roof over the containers as well .... still waiting on the "better price package deal" if I include the end wall in the initial purchase
