    If most of the time you need to heat your yurt up from freezing to nice (ie arriving on a wintery Friday night for the weekend - or even gone all day at work), an oversized stove is probably helpful....

    I am going on year five (full time) in my 24' yurt - and still love it. But I think maybe people end up building a cabin because it's cheaper and easier to regulate temperature and humidity in a...

    I've read on this forum that a ton of engineering goes into yurt designs to make them safe. Most people who build their own, build smaller ones. And I'm not sure I've ever even heard of a 50'...

    I'm with you, Bob. That's a tremendous amount of enclosed space and I can't even imagine what would go into making it work. Multiple supports throughout the structure? Spending some time on this...

    Some people find an old leaky camper for cheap, then pull out all the good stuff. My propane refrig is from such a tear down. Plus lighting, wiring, tanks, sinks. All good for a small space. ...

    I agree 100% with Hierony (on all his points.) With a little care, clothes don't have to be washed so often. I took one of the wooden, 2x4, vertical supports (not used in front of the windows...

    Jafo. I'm so glad you posted this. I have queen bunk beds and I've been thinking of building a little stairway/storage at the end for easier access to the top bunk. The ladder is okay, but a small...

    I've lived in my yurt (in New England) for over three years now. I don't know what a mini- split is, but doubt anything with the word "mini" in it's name would adequately climate control a yurt -...
