Build your own Yurt - Wall slats Part 2

[@devilsadversary9431]

Please do part three, I stayed in a yurt when I took a trip to Alaska and when I got back I got some land and I want to build a yurt village, your two yurt videos are absolutely amazing and the only reason you don’t have more views and subs is because most people don’t want to be self sufficient, amazing videos man I pray I see a part 3 one day, god bless

[@h2osalvage]

Welll it looks like I have no excuses now! Yurt life, here I come!! Thank you so much for sharing this! I look forward to part 3!!!

Me and my family are talking about building a yurt to live in due to the financial crisis the us is going through. So I really appreciate the video!

This is the MasterClass. ✊🍷🎩🎩🎩

[@TheShift_OfEnergy]

yurt is a life saver to anyone, men and women, young and old... Thank you for sharing, very much appreciated. I am interested, for what purpose do you leave those ropes hanging, is it for repairing purposes? Do you have a video of how to repair a wall and roof? How to install insulation for winter? Very important. THANKS! All the best for you.

[@NuDrums]

Great job, really looking forward to part 3!

[@rathernotdisclose8064]

I'm so envious of people with a workshop and wood working tools.

[@roaringleo57]

16:18 If you shove a small Phillips head screw driver (#0 size is slightly less than 1/8") through the holes in both wooden slats before clamping them; making a temporary hinge from them. Then clamp the 2 slats together. Remove the screw driver. Now the two holes will be in perfect alignment. Next thread the string right through both holes, rather than having to eyeball the hole alignment.

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Great tip! love it

[@velimirrodic2235]

Hey dude - this is absolutely the best DIY a yurt video I've found... BUT!! where is the rest of it?? :) ? Please, oh please, I really want to build a yurt of my own and I do not have tons of money to buy an industrial one, and I don't like them at all!! Please post a new episodes so "WE - the people" (as Travis Bickle follows WE ARE THE PEOPLE motto in taxi driver movie, :) ) can build our dream home. thanks from Croatia. :)

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Thank you so much!! I am working on it, its been a crazy year but will get it up before 2020!

thanks for the information just getting to see these Yurts they look amazing i think that be a great house for me. I have 15 acres wanted something i could build just didn't know till i saw one .

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

perfect for a small DIY homestead :D

[@lelandeggleston1041]

I was so into this. Where are the rest of the videos? Awesome work so far.

Love the video. Thinking about doing this, any tips for first timers? Hey. Side question. Whats your favorite Beatles song?

This is genuinely the most informative video on youtube for anything ever!! what happened to part 3? you are a wizard!!!

[@yuyo350]

I mean...you could use a candle for making the needles idk heh. Anyways, great job man. I'd really love to see the rest of the process and hopefully build mine someday.

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

haha yeah, I know how long to make the ropes now to make it worth my while and not to burn my fingers lol

[@ericablenkush5518]

Hey, so how much canvas do we need? How do we add the doors and windows? How do we make it snow proof and grizzly bear proof? How do we make a roof and the cool Mongolian Xanadu look on the top thingy? What about insulation and long term weather proofing? I was super excited about your videos, but then you never got to the good stuff.

[@kerricorser4562]

Yay! Thank you! There was no link at bottom i could see for the build list? Will you be doing an instructional video on how to measure canvas for roof and walls? These are great videos!

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

yes!!! I have footage shot already, just working on editing in my spare time (limited durring the summer :

[@billrichardson2256]

Thank you Mathew, I have really enjoyed your Yurt builds and itching to watch the next instalment.

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Thaks Bill!

[@katrinaphilips6757]

Is that felt in the background. Looking for a natural but burned out and washed wool felt. Looked into Sutherlands wool, but can't spend 10K on felt. I have MCS (Multiple Chemicle Sensitivities) if anyone has been in a similar situation or have recs for something more traditional and clean that might work. Thanks so much for sharing these torturials!

[@KCSaxe]

So much good info in your videos! 🙏 thank you!

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Glad you like them!

[@GRasimos]

You rock bro!

[@richardwhitcroftkc3rrw63]

i watched the 2 part about building a yurt wall .... is there any videos of building the roof and final project?

[@emilypenick9414]

What are your top three or four choices of wood for wall slats, and why?

[@rathernotdisclose8064]

I really appreciate these videos.

[@Foxiepawstotti]

This is great but I need to watch the whole series to see if its do-able by me. I have the land, the spruce trees, the sawmill and I think I could do it...its more aesthetically sound in my eyes...maybe with the help of my nephew and one of my sons I could give it a try...yurts blend in and dont look jarringly angular. Thank you for this...if it works I will let you know.

[@poormanscowranch3194]

Awesome the yurt done the Poorman's way!

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Thanks! my next Yurt series once I finish this one will be how to build a yurt for less then $100

[@youtoobermench]

Very Cool! Can you re-specify the diameter of the rope you use? 1/8" seems really thin. thanks

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

1/8" works well so long as you have good spacing between the slats, to little and its probably weak, too much and its overkill, mine are spaced 12" apart, the rope has not failed, its always the wood

[@aipouchang4037]

Great video! Where can I find a size for a 24’ yurt?

[@adamh7947]

Amazing videos

[@kerricorser4562]

Would the second wall then be the opposite with 12 in front and 11 in back? (The third wall made the same as the first to fit properly where they connect?)

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

the third wall is slightly different, I am going to try and get the dimensions up this week since there have been lots of questions!!

[@kerricorser4562]

@@FoxfireHeritageFarm thank you!

[@tanoivantube]

muchas gracias por tu video, muy bien explicado ....como puedo conseguir la información o planos para construir un Yurt ....mil gracias

[@pamelagreen1673]

Are you ok, dude? I just found your channel and I see you planned to release the next yurt video 2 years ago. I'm really enjoying the first 2 parts. I'd love to see subsequent videos, but, most importantly, I want to make sure you are ok in these difficult pandemic times.

[@ActionJackson1993]

Would Bamboo be a good alternative to traditional wood?

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

I Think I could be, but not for snow load, maybe in tropical areas

[@Drew-ce9ce]

Does bamboo not have a better tensile strength than even steel ? I’d hazard a guess that it could quite readily be used to form the lattice walls . Probably be lighter and cheaper as well ? There again there might be a reason why it isn’t/hasn’t been used before now. 🤷‍♂️

[@ryanblystone5153]

Thank you

[@RandomRao]

When it's part 3 coming? Eagerly waiting

[@youtoobermench]

save on butane go green and get a rope splicing fid!

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

oh damn wondaful idea, great way to reduce the consumables!!

[@franakofdune]

When will you do the roof rafters?

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

soon frank sorry for the delay, I accidentally deleted all my original footage I took of that process so need to refilm it

[@franakofdune]

@@FoxfireHeritageFarm ok cool! I'm getting excited about building one. But one thing im not sure about is if I need to steam bend the lattice and rafters.

[@HauntedRamblings]

I am so glad i found this!!! Im tired of seeing the high costs of buying one to be assembled!! But i dont see the link so i have a question... Each section should be the same correct?? I will be watching for more videos!! I will need my yurt up before winter!

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

for the 20 foot Yurt there are three sections, two are the same (but opposite) and the third is bigger, I am going to be putting up dimensions before fall, just very busy on our farm this summer!!

[@weedeater64]

Why are you leaving the long tails on the pieces of rope?

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

Ascetics only, you can cut them short if you prefer that look :)

[@blasterbrain1443]

Anyone else having trouble with their knots tightening themselves over several moves to the point where there’s space between the slats of the khana? I’ve been using 1/4 braided nylon with a core. They turn out great on fabrication, but after packing up and setting up again several times, the snug fit becomes maybe a 3/4” gap, and I’m finding myself having to tie the knots all over again.

[@rbc554445]

where is it the next one?

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

sorry the original footage got deleted by mistake so I need to refilm, will be coming this summer

[@benjaminjohns390]

how many slats per wall?

[@devonbolander9067]

What would you charge to build one 16 feet?

[@FoxfireHeritageFarm]

A custom made Yurt ranges around the 10k mark depending on options, we are currently booked up until 2021 tho

[@tomlohan1058]

So we can safely say that there will be no part 3.
