Building a Yurt

[grandpajohn]

Hi Bob,

Thank you so much for your level of detail on your contributions...! I've seen your yurt build page and pdf and am grateful for this.

That info, and responses like the one above, will be what keeps me coming back!

My complete build is a couple of years away yet as I've got to prepare the land (like build a road to the place, for one) but I can start the baby-step processes soon

Cheers
John

How do we post video on this site? YouTube or other?

Or just post the youtube link.

Thanks! Don't know why I didn't see that while poking around.

Nothing fancy, just a quick video to show how I cut out the notches in my crown.

Smart! A little complicated, but smart and surely gets the job done. I used just plain old chisel and mallet, I seem to work faster and more accurate with handtools than I can with powertools

I may be teaching yurt building in the near future still in the planning stages.
Will keep you guys posted.
