I have been trying to figure out a origami cold frame for sometime with polycarbonate, but approached it more like a traditional an ORU kayak. …. An ORU compresses the corrugation to make the hinge. Your solution is brilliant! So much easier! I will be trying this approach as I already have the materials. THANK YOU :).
Ive been growing greens in cold frames so my chickens have access to something green and fresh to eat. Such a delight to get a video from you this morning 😊 I look for those panels on marketplace regularly because in store they are pricey!
I appreciate that you walk through all the steps and give people what they need to potentially recreate…I’m worried I’d buy materials and then make something too small or too big based on my own guesses. Would you be willing to share the dimensions in your comment description box? I feel bad even asking consider how generous you are with your creative ideas.
Siloë , My dear scruffy frozen master gardener, I wish I could share my lettuce patch pictures with you! Tell me how 🤔 Happy all weather gardening to all M.m

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant!
What a wonderful idea! You do just beautiful and esthetic work. It is a pleasure to follow your videos!
You are unstoppable creative! I adore these cloches, it looks so Victorian lantern, which I love ❤

This is absolutely genius
The fun you have with your experiments shows in your calmness, you sound like an angel 😇
I bet having a neighbour like you would be a blessing for anyone out there.
Thanks for another awesome video.
a genius works with his Spirit and you certainly do! They look like crystals: awesome!

Either way, thanks!
This is giving me ideas for a small greenhouse I have that I hardly use.
Can you patent the design and sell them?
This is super clever 🎉
Hahahahaha, love the garden mascot; thank you for giving me the giggles. Your creativity astound me, as always! x
😄 your humor is a plus to a great design. Thanks for sharing. Have a great 26!
Just when I think you’ve done it all.

love it!!!
Absolutely LOVE this. I did "hype" this, as any gardener, or just lover of beauty, will enjoy this channel. ❤
Another fantastic video! Thank. you so much for sharing.
Can you show us how you make other models of cloche
You have inspired me with your creative and beautiful ideas! Thank you for sharing.
Very cool
I can't wait to try making one of these. I like that they are lightweight as well as lovely.
So, how cold can it get before this stops working. Like, I see no snow, so how cold do you get?
What an amazing idea. They look so much better than my brick and glass ones
