Hi Alex, I never heard of 1/4" EMT. I Googled it and Google responses came up as 1.25 inch EMT. Where did you buy 1/4" EMT and what did it cost.
If you were re-doing this design, what would you change? How comfortable was it inside? The beauty of this pyramid design is that it can be 50 feet long and 50 feet wide ... well up to about 16 feet wide at the base would be easy to roof and keep the construction just 1 inch foam panels, zip ties, tape and pipe. As I thought about 1/4 inch EMT ... I asked myself ... how did you drill it and thread those needle holes with the zip ties? I really like the zip tie idea. I would be tempted to use 1.25 inch PVC pipe as that is easy to cut with a pair of $40 Harbor Freight Tools electric sheet metal shears. Mark the length of the PVC pipe twice with a little jig made from 2x4 scrap and a pencil ... and cut one strip then the second strip to create your 1 inch gap for your panel and just slip the pane inside ... holding the PVC in place with silicone or zip ties. Notch the PVC rather than the panels and the PVC pipe can protect the panel edges. Bobby Ray 951-764-1335 in Sun City California. I travel all over the USA and love to look at the projects of others.
