Title: cold frame II - THE BOILATRON.
Post by: sawfish on February 26, 2007, 18:14:51
Here's my new double glazed highrise coldframe from its humble beginnings to today. I wish I had pictures of the other one getting built but I didn't think.

I want to try to get a coldframe as hot as possible without being powered.

I'm beginning to find it quite ugly, its looking more and more like one of those individual saunas where your head sticks out the top with a towel round your neck.

Brill Sawfish! I too have cobbled together a "Heath Robinson" coldframe this week, not as fancy as yours though,(Mine Has a gaping hole or 3 that needs sorting) and I wish I had some perspex!
