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

Posted On: 01-12-2024, 10:03 PMTSRalex liked post by Bob Rowlands On thread : Woodstove one side of yurt, but cold opposite site what to doYou need insulation. Uninsulated yurts (like mine) don't hold the heat at all. About like duck hunting when it's 10f, in a long sleeve shirt and a pair of jeans. Staying warm ain't gonna happen.
