In this video I talk about the truss design for our passive solar greenhouse. In this particular design we cut notches out of fir beams to allow for 2×4 perlins. It is a beautiful and functional design that will allow us to mount the polycarbonate flush to the rafters.

Rob is a very busy guy but he answers all questions in his online courses. That is why I took this one.
Can anyone do geothermal heating or does it take a particular piece of property and if so what would I look for in a property? We really want to have geothermal heat.
Why didn't you go with a rot resistant wood like cedar, redwood, teak? I've often thought of what material to use and with the humidity inside thought something other than pine would be a better choice. Are you going to protect the wood by some other means ie paint/stain?
Project looks great though!
Stellar, fascintaing to see the progress
Fantastic!
Looking great! Very exciting to see it progress. I'm in the middle of building a passive solar greenhouse as well but it's going much more slowly than yours!
Did you use regular thermopane windows. Should I be concerned about window treatments that may block some uv rays when getting windows for my greenhouse? thanks
Can’t wait to see it finished!!!
first ! ;p
