Re: Help! I need all YURT advice!
Regarding covers, if you buy a used yurt that was made by a major manufacturer, you'll likely be able to get a high grade 15 year replacement cover for a reasonable cost.
If you find a used yurt that isn't from a major yurt supplier, and can't get hold of the original maker for whatever reason, possibly one of the big dogs in the business could make you a new cover. I'm absolutely certain they'll ask you for details about the yurt wall height and roof geometry, specifically the roof pitch.
Yurt covers are definitely not 'one size fits all' relative to diameter. Wall height, roof pitch and roof ring diameter, rafter length, plus any attachment grommets or loops or whatever, need to be carefully measured and noted in a legible fashion.
FWIW, I made my own cover from a square canvas tarp. While it is a very good cover, it wasn't easy to make, nor is it even slightly close to a professional grade 15 year cover.
Good luck.
