Awesome dome calculator. It seems the 200 bricks I purchased might be enough for the dome, floor and hopefully also the arch. I wll check the numbers against the calculations of your tool.

Cool location! and I like what you are doing with the sunken IT.

Since you are just getting started, can you check out the dome calculator spreadsheet I posted in the tips and tools forum and see if it works for you? I would love feedback on any bugs builders see.

I received the last of my material from Cape Town and started with my build.

I decided to enlarge an existing concrete slab next to my fireplace. Here are some pics of my progress.

My current entertainment area; Same area after some brickwork where the slab will be enlarged; My trusted (and very old) De Walt radial arm saw to cut bricks; Cut bricks of my floor and soldier course laid out.

I will post pics of my progress and will appreciate any input or comments form other members.
