The dome is 4.5m high, 9m in diameter, 63m2 surface area.
The tubes are 22mm (stainless?) steel tubes
The inner ring of the hub are a 40mm external diameter steel ring, with a height of 25 mm.
The outer ring of the hub are a 75mm external diameter steel ring, with a height of 50mm.
Both ends of a steel pipe are drilled with an 8mm hole, with it's center point located 8mm from the edge.
The outer hub will be equipped with 24mm holes.
The short pipes (S) (1.57m) are marked with BLACK tape
The medium pipes (M) (1.82m) are marked with WHITE tape
The long pipes (L) (1.86m) are marked with RED tape
140 grommets are needed
60 herrings are needed
Special tape is used to provide "meat" to mount the grommets on the cover
