This is a much nicer quality video of our homemade polytunnel taken on 6/20/11. Our previous video was terrible quality, but it is worth checking out just to see the incredible difference in growth in just about a month. This project turned out to be a little more in-depth than we expected, but I would highly recommend building one if you have even a little interest.
Thanks for that , i dont spose you have an email addy and ill send some pics of the one we are making ?

Close guess. Side walls are 28″ (around 71 cm) high. This will give a ceiling height of 91.5″ (232 cm) if the width of the structure is 10′ 7″ (10 feet plus the width of two 2×4’s) The RADIUS for the circle is 63.5″.
63.5+28=91.5
Sorry about the conversion problem 🙂

I don’t mind at all, I appreciate it. Post a vid when you finish. If you need info on any of the angles, dimensions, etc, let me know. I recommend that you start with a base of 6×6’s to build it on, and plan on making a gutter… it’s so helpful. The front looks a bit better now, with flat plastic, arched trimwork, and magnetic latch door w/ removable screen; I will soon make an updated vid. Thanks for the feedback & good luck.
