Hi Carsten, Did you cast that dome? If so I'm very curious how you machined the mold.

cheers,

Alec

Emile and I just developt and produce together with a acrylic company a
about 2 feet dome good for 500 feet as replacement for Sgt.Peppers. Was
made it last friday ! Its about 1000-1200 euros, depents on size and
thickness. The exact figure is 570 mm outside diameter. We have now the
tool and can copy it. Will post some pictures to Moki in some days.

If you need a dome we have now the knowledge to make a good one. 
If somebody want one - contact me off the list.
