I have a set of those, never set it up.  

For a while I wondered if one could make a tiny house out of them--kind of the size of the the London flat that Glenn mentioned in Narrow Houses.

Here's a link to a video constructing and then de-constructing a small dome using a similar fastening system.

And good luck getting the code inspectors to pass you.    ::)  After that the main problem is sealing the panel joints so it doesn't rain inside. Glenn, you could weld one up in no time, subbing steel for wood.    :)  Spray the inside with Icynene?   :-/

Bucky would be pleased.
