    hierony liked post by Bob Rowlands On thread : Choosing Floor Insulation
    Here's an easy way. Get the tarp laid out, and pick a focal point of the yurt. Drive a stake through the tarp that has a nail in the top. Or have a friend hold the dumb end of a tape at the focal...

    I finally raised my yurt on a straw bale platform. Not an easy task. I also screwed up some dimentions so I will have to think about a lip to avoid leakage. Thank you all for your support.

    A bit off topic, but I was extremely concerned about my wood stove installation regarding pipe temp and combustibles, the ring and the canvas cover. I mean really edgy to where I was nervously...

    hierony liked post by kochevnik On thread : 12 foot--cozy or too small?
    I did set up a 12ft (3.5m) yurt last year just as an experiment and spent a few weeks there. I will be using it as an addition to my 20ft this year. You can see my short vlog entry to see it in...

    Hierony and Bob. Thank you for your feedback. Awesome advises as always. No chain saw. Got it. Double layer plywood is tough though. Not even the money wise but rather portability and logistics....

    IMO 12' is a very small yurt for full time living. A 10x12 trappers cabin is about the same size, and common in the bush, so it can be done by someone living a very spartan existence. My first yurt...

    hierony liked post by Shelter Designs On thread : Snow Load - Center Column??
    Hierony asked the key question - what is the snow load for your area? We have sent many yurts over the years to N Idaho, so we may already know what is needed if we can get the location from you. ...

    hierony liked post by Bob Rowlands On thread : White yurt cover, why so popular?
    White undyed canvas is IMO the best tent color, but that IS jmo. I have been in dyed canvas tent before, olive drab military surplus, and in really nasty -20F conditions, building a Super8 motel in...

    hierony liked post by Jafo On thread : Revamped the Solar Setup
    The battery bank was from 2012. I would imagine there were about 75-100 discharges a year, most under 50% of capacity. My old inverter would cut out aroun 11.6, and I rarely ever got to that level....

    They were not giving me the same capacity as they once did. I tried sulfating them and it did improve things for a while, but not enough. I wanted the kind of capacity where I could go a week with...

    It might be helpful for you to stay the night in the Pacific Yurt rental at Torreya State Park in Bristol, Florida. It is only a 20' diameter and is getting pretty old, but it would give you an...

    hierony liked post by Jafo On thread : buying a yurt in FL/the South
    I would just ask them the possibilities. It can't hurt. I think people down South have an easier time getting these things permitted because insulation is rarely a factor. Most of the time they...

    We put one of these together last month, sort of as a way to tide us over until we get to work on our "real" yurt. It was really fun! Plus, if we get really yurt-crazy, we could make little...
