Needing building advice

[Jake]

Hi Roo

There are two books that I feel are the best of the lot, but there are others well worth having, the two are Paul King's book, and Living in the Round. These along with Simply Differently will give you what you need to know, 'all else is commentary'. Those plus this site with Jafo and Bob and the site info will stear you right. It sounds like you have the skills needed, especially with your family .

I am in the 'looking for a place mode', somewhere, wooded, here in Northern MI. My plans are quickly moving to a hybrid wooden yurt, with tono and

dome

, with some material from

Groovy Yurts

, I do like their decorations, for the door, tono and bagaan. I will make a little addition for shop, etc. Their door(G.Y.) will lead into the shop from the yurt itself. The shop is for building bows, including Mongolian composites, my favorite bows.

Happy homeworking and study , that's the best use for winter time, preferably sitting by a nice log fire by your cast iron stove, coffee at hand, dog and cats snuggled up near by.
