This afternoon I put in some more nuts and bolts around the inside of the dome where all the parts come together. I had them all just finger-tight and had to loosen them and jiggle things around to get all (ok - most) of the holes to like up. All the holes were drilled by the previous owner of the dome, so it took some work to get them all lined up and bolted together.
It was another stormy day today with showers, wind and even a bit of thunder. I was out there working on the inside during a heavy shower and didn't notice any major leaks, so I figured I'd ditch the ugly tarp and see how it goes. I still have to squirt RTV in the seams and maybe try some foam sealant in some of the bigger gaps, but I'll need a dry day.

Tarp on. |

Tarp off - after proving it was fairly water tight. |
