Roof tiles from plastic bottles - alternative to greenhouse film

You can use this technique to make roof for your greenhouse as a cheaper and stronger alternative to traditional greenhouse film. Or you could find a different use.
What you will need:
# plastic PET bottles (How much depends on the area of desired roof)
# a knife
# a stapler


The idea basically is very simple - cut the bottle in half. You will end up with two half tubes, flip one half upside-down and staple the sides together.
The rest is some math and montage. For the necessary area of the roof desired, you will have to staple these plastic tiles in the measured length and width of the roof.

As to montage you would probably go with nails or screws, thought you could try to staple it, tho I doubt it will hold for long.
