I've got that very same thing sitting on my kitchen counter right now. I'm glad I waited before fixing the roof :) Now I'm going to use it to turn the ex-roof into a bed-liner for my *new* 2000...

Ooooo! As noted, I like that idea. That bracket looks rock solid... Thank you for the photo evidence. I'm gathering a long list of great possibilities from this forum!

For the record, this is...

Ok, it rained nice and gentle for me. There are still some holes, though fewer than before.
There's evidently a spot at the center that leaks, too, between the dome and the roof. The compression...

Yeah, our SM yurt has the rafter end locking screw, too. I have already been grateful for it.

Hey, great ideas!
I'll look into procuring some scraps and H-66, though for the time being I'll see how the caulk weathers. 'Cause if it's a matter of only applying it once a year even, it wouldn't...

Yeah, I caulked it about three weeks ago. If it would only rain, I could see how it held! We did have that massive windstorm two weeks ago, and that dropped .6" of rain in an hour. I believe the...

I certainly will - one friend has already told me that caulk is his solution to practically everything, so I'm optimistic...

Ok, I'm thinking silicone caulk now. I'm thinking I could just squirt it through the hole from below and smear it across the top where it comes through to make it smooth.
Of course, there's no real...

Well, I was thinking more in terms of the UV resistance of the patch material. If the roof isn't up to the solar wear, well, it would just be a matter of time before it's sunk.

Thanks!
I wish they had - that would have been handy. When we bought our second-hand there were no bags involved, just tossed it in the truck.
On PY's order forms they note "Pacific Yurts does not...

Oh, definitely part of the mystery :) My guess, though, is that they were a product of the collapse this yurt sustained. The original owners had bought three SMY's, and all three fell in a "dry...

A hole in the Roof

Hey all!
The brief story of our new yurt is on my blog (http://royermillers.blogspot.com), so I won't go into great detail about the back story. It's a second-hand Spirit Mountain Yurt, and was...
