Dome Connector

thingiverse

This is an scad file that will generate connectors for geodesic domes, hopefully. Instructions My goal is to use this with tent poles, since it's fairly easy to come across a non-functional tent with lots of functional poles. According to http://www.desertdomes.com a 2v dome has 16 degrees on the pentagon (B struts) and 18degrees on 4 of the hexagons 6 with 16 degrees on two opposite ones. Checkout http://www.desertdomes.com/graphics/dome/2vdiagram.gif for assembly diagram. I've made a thru hole so you can bolt it with some 3mm bolt and big washers, I was having problems with it splitting where all the poles lineup. I also centered it.
