He has been looking for a dome manufacturer for his sub. And I think he recently had success. </div><div style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">His original manufacturer in California pulled out for some reason. </div><div style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;">Emile in the Netherlands has a dome pressing set up, but won't sell to the USA because of liability reasons. Mexico may be OK. Freight may be expensive though. </div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;">https://www.airesearch.nl/products/</span></font><br clear="none"></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;">There is a price for a dome shown. He can also mount the dome. You have to know what you are doing to form a dome. It has to be annealed after forming as this can make a huge difference on its strength. Also how it is mounted is important. </span></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;">Just keep firing the questions and we will try & help you. </span></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;">Alan</span></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;"><br clear="none"></span></font></div><div><font face="Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size:16px;"><br clear="none"></span></font></div><div style="font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;font-size:16px;"><br clear="none"></div>
