Hello,
We made this glass house from old windows we gathered from folks who
weatherize houses w/ new windows....the whole thing sits on a concrete block
floor in a recycled beam box filled w/ sand. The top is and old
greenhouse ventilator and we scored a commercial greenhouse door for free
too. Held 38oF last winter at a low of 22oF w/ an electric oil radiator we
had ( one element burned out).....this year we will use a 2 element
version.....lol.
one month to build ....cost 300 frogskins plus lots of recycled wood.
