The site that Ross offered has a link to cheap, self-assembled structures that look very much like mine. Mine is a custom number that my husband built for me as a gift. One note of warning: Corplast is not as uv resistant as is reported, as one whole outer wall of my gh will have to be replaced. Ah, live and learn! The site's gh kits look like they used a more uv resistant material...more like the roof material we got at the local hardware box store. It's held up really well to all of the weather extremes (even the ice storm a couple years back!). Yeah, go for the big ring and enjoy it. I really have enjoyed mine and it's been fun to plan and budget for equipment and orchids. It's worth it!

You are correct on the quality of the UV deterent used on outer walls of this material. Also, you can purchase containers of material meant to replenish the UV-resistance and clearity. Just ask them.
