Hi Ben,
I've been through all that stuff, looking for cheap
domes.
I've had one blown locally in NewZealand, but from
what I learn't
along the way, it's best to go with someone that
knows what they're doing.
Maybe you could talk Greg Cotteral into doing
one?
Emile does a 580mm blown dome he says is good for
450ft operation.
Another one is Hydroport in Germany, they do a
600mm dome in two
thicknesses. It's the cheapest cast dome that I
could find 1/3rd the price
of a British equivalent.
Below are some extracts from their emails. If you
want their drawings I can
send them off site.
Alan
