Turtle Tuff Shelters - Geodesic Domes Revistited

Here's an interesting new product that may be of interest to many of you. Remember the geodesic domes that became popular in the 60's? Well these guys took that concept and turned it into a portable, durable, long term living accommodation.  So if your family where to have to evacuate your home for an extended period of time, you would be able to have a fairly strong structure to house your family in during that time.

The geodesic dome is a very strong structure, they coverings they use could probably even be replaced with other materials  to help camouflage the whole thing and protect the fabric from exposure to the sun and other harsh weather conditions. The insulation option would also come in handy encase of a long term winter need. Folks like us that live where it gets very cold for many months would definitely want to take advantage of this option.

Of course don't let your imagination stop there. This same item could easily be covered with clear plastic and be turned into a very effective "Wind Resistant" green house for use anytime your not needing a home away from home. I can think of many many uses for this structure.
