    Pixiemoss liked post by Jafo On thread : Insulation

    I would suggest perhaps interning with a yurt builder for some time, perhaps in Mongolia. There are many families that make these there.

    Hmm at this point, you are probably going to need to hire a mold abatement service of some kind. This really isn't something you want to play with. You should not have this much mold. It sounds...

    TSRalex liked post by Jafo On thread : Ring failed. Image of construction. What's your opinion?
    I don't have the numbers now, but when I found the snow load requirements in my area which IIRC was based on snow PSF, my yurt exceeded them without the center pole. We have years where we get snow...

    I see people doing it with burn barrels and leaf blowers on youtube. Depends on the size of the stumps (must be smaller than diameter of barrel).
