by Geodesic Temple
Shandaken, NY - May 2025
This temple is made of thirteen wooden octahedra to commemorate Country Club's thirteenth edition. This is the first time we include Zero Gravity Chairs in an actual Geodesic Temple.
Design
Version 20250503
Use of last year's Zero G chairs, removed some triangles in the star, removed 5 lights inside star, reinforcer edges of large pyramid with glued 2x4s on both sides of each 2x6.
Version 20250430
More stable pedestal (16' 2x6s), longer members (5' and 3') for the 2x4s of the OHs that make the star, rays (1x3s) expanding out and 15x 1W LED light bulbs reflecting on the plywood triangles of the central star.
