ABSTRACT:
A geodesic dome connector system of the type having a tubular polygonal hub supporting a radial array of arms provides for precision assembly of a variety of types of connectors by pre-assembly of respective arms to two peripherally extending faceted sections which form on resilient assembly about a template the tubular polygonal hub, the template being affixed as a gusset bracing the connector; structure defining apertures between tubular polygonal hub and template or gusset which permit looser tolerances on bending of the tubular polygonal hub parts and provide easier assembly with less distortion.
