Greenhouse completion

first, I think it is beautiful. Secondly – very functional and third—beat the city? Priceless :D

I look forward to hearing about your gardening successes. I’m sure you will be sharing the process with us over at GardenTenders

Very impressive, I’ve dreamed of making a greenhouse but can’t seem to get going on it. Maybe in the spring? or maybe next fall?,, probably never but yours is an inspiration.

nice project!

Gagagagaga!!! Drool! I love it! I also hope you post your ‘maters and how well you do over in GT…

Thats nice, love the design and what a treat to have. Think of all the money you save by growing your own veggies and flowers not to mention the satisfaction of growing your own.

I am also making a greenhouse and if it looks half as nice as yours it will look pretty darn good.

I’ld love to see a picture of that overhang above the door?

What do you mean when you say “Turning large stone columns?

THANKS EVERYONE. Appreciate the feedback. Roman. Above the door is a curved overhang with cedar singles I had left over and a point. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2429/3971842062_10bd75827c_m.jpg
this is a side photo.

Regards to the stone column. I turn sandstone and limestone columns on a huge lathe for a friend who has a stone business when he has the extra work. Kind of a weird job I fell into…

Hey fellow Michigander! Very cool greenhouse! My wife has wanted me to build one for years now. Maybe next year.

Great job and stay warm this winter, I have a feeling it will be an extra cold one.

Very nice looking greenhouse. My wife has been asking for one for years and I’ll definitelly come back to your images to get ideas. Again very nice looking.

Very nice design, I have always wanted to build a green house.
Have you considered temperature controlled hinges. They are gas filled hinges, as the temperature in the green house warms or cools the gas in the hinge expands or contracts openening or closing the vent. Essentially, you set the hinge temerature and you have a rudimentry greeenhouse thermostat.
I do’t know much about wax piston louvres so perhaps they are the same thing.

Great design and execution.
I doubt you will get “winter” tomatoes unless you provide a lot of heat and extra hours of light but you should be able to grow some winter greens , lettuce, spinach and such, and get your summer plantings off to a good head start in the spring.

I would love something like this but neither myself or my wife is into it so in the end it would be a shed. Love the building but no green thumbs in our family so I can’t try it.
