This photo has you standing in the large vault leading to the foyer. The opening on the other side is where the front door will go. I do have some bad news here. The wonderful curve you see on the arch leading outside, well it lost part of it's shape. The vault leading to the laundry room held it's shape. Here again we get the point, Keep those forms in until it really really time. To be honest if I were to redo the foyer it would be 10 times nicer. I've learned a lot in the last eight months. It is a good thing that I started with the foyer because I have avoided those mistakes on the large dome.

The foyer will have a more cave like feel to it do to the irregularities of the structure. By the time I finish this building I will be quite proficient at superadobe. Not because I'm smart mind you, just that if you spend enough time doing anything you get better at it.

The problems with the font door vault started when the first version of it collapsed due to my use of some two point 1/4 inch barbed wire. You need to use four point 1/2 inch barbed wire. After five days of rain the area with this wire was able to push out causing the vault to collapse. This could have been avoided in several ways. The moral of the story is if you don't have time to do it right the first time, you have to make time to fix it after it breaks. Do it right the first time and avoid the whole mess!
