#2 was aluminum angle and channel drilled and screwed together that would only be sturdy enough with a lot of crossbracing. Carpal tunnel forced abandonment, but it was also looking ugly. On that note though I was looking a lot at how geodesic domes were constructed for inspiration.
And with my deepest regards to Dr. Fuller, I just don't got a whole lot of "try" left in me. I'm scared to death If I think too hard I'll find some minor flaw which would make me scrap the whole thing and start over.

My get-up-and-go has got up and went (as they say) so my think/do ratio is going up.
I keep trying to adapt geodesics to streamlining, for buildability's sake. Triangles are tedious, but with diamonds or hexagons you have fewer edges.
