    Our yurt has just withstood a windstorm. At first though, the wind has tucked up the roof cover somewhat, but then I pulled it back down and secured it, plus I've tied the wall cover to keep it from...

    The jamb halves of door hinges roughly forged. Will improve them a little yet and finish them with baked-on beeswax. Door halves will be similar, but smaller. http://knecht.novarata.net/?di=HPKJ

    Added another tarp to complete the wall cover. Just temporary, as we'll take it all off when we finally do the wall insulation. By now it's rainy, so we have to wait. Anyway, the wall looks much...

    I had my cover custom-made by a local company that makes all kinds of big fabric works...from tents to truck tarps. They do sell the coated fabric by meter, but it's not easy to put it together by...

    Welcome. You may find some usable ideas or answers in my CZ yurt thread here, I'm just about to finish my build. The place where I live rarely has -30°C or below, but -20°C in winter isn't...

    Today I've finally finished patching the stitched points. Bought some large pipe insulation to try my idea with the door frame sealing. Will refer how that worked. Hope to start covering the walls...

    Finished the top ring of thermofoils and added some of the wool blankets on the large gaps at the bottom. Will cover the remaining spots with some leftover materials once we finish the wall. ...

    Good news, the weather is getting warm finally. So we've patched the bad stitching, dealt with some minor details and started working on the roof again. Insulation should consist of carpets as the...

    I'm fine, but it's just couple days since the yurt roof had no snow on it anymore. It's still around freezing, but it's slowly getting warmer.

    Bummer, snowing and raining today, both at once. Not a good time to lift the roof and play with insulation. Good news is that the door fits perfectly: http://knecht.novarata.net/?di=4LRX

    Thanks Bob. I'll see how it goes once we fully insulate and and cover the walls. The added board may be the way to go, as I foresee some troubles tucking the cover into the frame slot. I built the...
