Anyone built a greenhouse

[Buster57]

I built a 16 x 24 foot greenhouse in Oregon.
Use old slidding glass doors on either end. Looks the best. The double sided 6 mil poly is what I used with an internal inflation fan.
Tubular commercial al is what I used for a frame.
There are many companies that can give you advice or send you actual kit to assemble yourself. The people I used were Oregon Valley Greenhouses in Aurora, Oregon. Send me an e-mail if you need additional information.
Have fun!

Wasabi, patrickg and everyone else, thanks for providing some great food for thought and also some informative links.

The ideas regarding the used shower doors and other used glass are appealing regarding cost, especially since I have been bringing home glass from our local transfer station and other people's remodelling projects for the last 18 months. The passive solar ideas are also intriguing providing I can manage day time temperatures.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'm hoping for a warm fall so that I can get the house built before the snow flys.

Here's another board I lurk around on with alot of good information <A target="_blank" HREF=http://gardenweb.com>http://gardenweb.com</A>. Do a search on greenhouse and you'll find more posts than you can read in a week.

Hope this helps.
