    709 sq ft, 30' diameter yurt with tall walls. It is located in northern central NY in the Tug Hill region where it frequently falls well below zero (-27F yesterday) and several feet of snow each...

    Do you have the ability to put in an outside air kit, which supplies combustion air to the stove from the outside via a pipe, rather than through windows, doors, cracks, etc.? Is it a catalytic...

    The studs in mine are attached by brackets to the rafters and to the platform. I mount cabinets and other such things to them with no problem. You couldn't move them if you tried. Of course, we...

    I would imagine you would erect studs from the rafters to the floor like many have with snow/wind kits. Then build off of those.

    TSRalex liked post by Jafo On thread : Wind and the Yurt
    I agree with the wind kit. Most of the time it is packaged together with a snow kit too. My yurt has 48 studs. Each are bracketed to the rafters and the deck. The walls are screwed to the skirt...

    Yurts have a tough time in wet areas, so I agree with Alex.

    That's like asking the value of a car.. Well, what kind of car, what year, color, etc.? Same goes for the yurt. ;)

    If everything else connected to it is not a conductor, then it shouldn't be an issue I would think. People use metal roofing all the time without it attracting lightning. The metal itself isn't...

    Did you get the snow and wind package? How much snow and/or wind do you get? I would prefer to not have trees right near my yurt, in fact, I cut all the trees down around it because I don't...

    IMO wood is the best option because it is a dry heat. The insulation/moisture topic is a hot one within the yurt community. My opinion on this is basically this: Have you ever been in an attic...
