Title: A Regular Nonagon
Post by: InfraDig on July 27, 2009, 10:24:09
I have just been given, and have erected, a nine sided greenhouse. It's 1.8 m across. I am looking for ideas on what sort of stageing to put in it. To me it looks like a constructional nightmare!!

Thanks for ANY help.

I've seen staging for Octagonal houses... is it a one of or do the company make some to fit?  :-\

I think if it were mine I would go for a series of short stagings i.e. the size of a side!

The resulting gap between each section could be bridged with a board or strong pieces of weldmesh.

At least this way you can have partial height sections by leaving a stage in place or you can have full height sections by temporarily moving a section.

At least in this way your sections would be interchangeable if and when you had to make space for taller subjects e.g tomatoes!

I feel this might be better than having the headache of working out where each particular section goes each year.

Thats my opinion for what it is worth!
