Woodstove required?I would use a mini-split so you can maximize the space for the students. If you are getting a modern yurt, then I wouldn't worry about maintenance and insulation too much.

I am sure they could send you some material pretty cheaply that will match the existing color of your yurt. They are pretty good at supporting their products.Liked On: 05-30-2024, 02:55 PM

I used the 'rule of thirds' -which is a rough approximation of the GR- in my finish carpentry for many decades. "That mantle really great Bob." GR at work.Liked On: 04-13-2024, 12:15 PM

Posted On: 04-13-2024, 11:37 AMTSRalex liked post by Jafo On thread : Yurt proportions & golden ratioI am not good at this kind of thing but I cannot imagine a yurt looking like that and working out. The weight is supposed to push out, against the cable/rope, not down on the lattice.Liked On: 04-12-2024, 10:43 PM
