Yes it is, especially when you can see the end of the tunnel. Now if it would only STOP RAINING !!!!! I could get the circular concrete floor underway.

Here's a couple more photos Pete.

Adam, I knocked up a quick cutting bench (see pic) with a cutter on the end and then cut the bench up for the rings once the foam was done Once you get a rhythum going it happens pretty quickly. I cut 2 triangles out of 4mm MDF with a box cutter and a metal straight edge and used them to draw cut lines on the foam. When it was complete and upside down the edges where a bit wobbly but right way up it's surprisingly ridgid, like an egg I suppose. It still needs the bottom ring and associated internal reinforcing to go onto it and a waterproof coating, render or similar will do it and I shouldn't forget the shutter I guess
