Proud New Yurt Owner- Needs a New Cover

[Bob Rowlands]

BTW I'm a carpenter and all this stuff is merely a days work for me. Feel free to ask any other questions. If you want to see the basic yurt plan I used go to:

clan yama kaminari yurt

click on build it.

I modified the ring and door frame, built a half lapped (strong)Mongolian style five panel door, and made a few other tweaks. That is a 'superb' nomadic yurt plan that I highly reccomend to anyone interested in building their own nomadic camping yurt. I have built three, a 14', 16', and my current 12'6".

You can plainly see the bridle on my 16' yurt on google images. Type in:

Bob Rowlands home made yurt

in images. Mine is the rustic canvas covered yurt with green door and rafter/lattice either side of door frame. Thee are several photos. You can see the ell brackets, door and frame, lashings, deck, anchorages etc. OK Now I'm done lol
