I've just invested in one of these:- https://www.screwfix.com/p/wagner-w-690-flexio-630w-electric-paint-sprayer-220-240v/2884t?ref=SFAppShare I haven't used it yet, but chose it for its larger capacity and more suitable for walls and ceilings. On offer at Screwfix at the moment. Brian

All these fancy joints were necessary because mechanical strength was required in addition to the inadequate glues then available. Now we have CA glues which are specifically marketed as Mitrebond. The only requirement here for a successful bond is that the mitre faces be accurately machined and...

It's a good job that not everyone takes that attitude otherwise we would have a dictatorship and change would be decided on the battlefield.

Don't forget my suggestion of 15mm aluminium which is definitely available and won't rust. The dome could be created by application of epoxy filler. Filing that down will be a lot easier than steel. Brian
