just do rugs Dan and dont worry about burning and staining. This Yurt is going to be so cool to live in while you restore the Chateau

[@RTCPhotoWork]

He does need to seal the wood, but I agree about finding rugs if he's dealing with that much of a time crunch.

[@robynpringle2309]

Rugs will also keep it warmer in the winter winds!

[@katehobbs2008]

Rugs not so practical on a muddy building site.

[@johne.coughlan6824]

Also some throw pillows, perhaps from Stephanie? Pink Toile to remind him of a certain room?

[@michellebyrom6551]

​@@katehobbs2008rag rugs and cotton kilims can either go into a large washing machine or be taken outside for a.beating when the muds dry. Leaving all outdoor footwear by the door helps enormously.

[@susandaniel6600]

That yurt is far more ornamental than I had imagined! It’s a very luxurious yurt indeed. Rather perfect for a classy chateau owner/restorer like yourself. Sweet dreams, Dan.

[@whileimhere9971]

Same thoughts!

[@taylorh.6477]

It will be perfect in the future for overflow guests etc as well. It will be a great feature of the property

[@thomasherrin6798]

A six berth second hand caravan would be more practical and most probably cheaper, but I suppose it's better than a pitched tent!?!

That is so cool! Do you have a stove in the middle of the yurt and vent out the middle top flap? Is there anything essential Dan should know about living in a yurt? Are your walls and roof made of sheep or yak wool? I would be so interested to know.

[@eirintowne]

Look at his body language each time s task is completed, especially if it was a substantial effort! That feeling of mastery after having learned and improved on very useful skills can be enough, and Dan is also literally building his future! All the effort put in now, while he is young, healthy, motivated and able, will make his life so much easier as age starts to catch up. He will no doubt train the boys to build and husband the resources, so there should be a slow and steady rise of the property value. Dan gets to put walls where he wants them, even if it was done differently before the fire, instead of replicating traditions that no longer make perfect sense. Then it'll be time to decorate to his taste, and he has proven excellent at that, already. In a couple of years he will live in his dream home, safe and practical, with income from guests and content production, establishing his sons' heritage and his own legacy.

[@jagmanjohnthejag]

(Good Thing a social life isn't important!)

[@Ltbookum]

Great work! That's more flooring than any other traditional Yurt would have had. My fathers one has been sitting on flat tarped soil for over 18yrs. Very similar to his in all aspects really. The Yurt itself is quite traditional in build up, color and ornate detailing. Where (like his) it differs from that is in the overall diameter (a traditional one is 5m across), the second door(normally it would just be the 1 entrance door), the glass in the door (it would otherwise be windowless), and most likely the Plexiglas windows in the dome with a cutout for the stack (it would traditionally be half open and covered by the flap on top if need be). There's a whole lot of traditional religious elements in them as well if you choose to adhere to them. There's always a handsaw above the door in between the roof beams and the cloth with the teeth facing the door to keep out bad spirits. You would normally have only the one door open, never 2 as it would allow spirits to pass through. The centre rope is tied to a big rock (you have plenty) and the end tucked away as a endless knot. In case of a big windy storm have the front door and top flap open, It will allow the wind to pass through. The rock will allow for some movement (I've witnessed it as a whole being slightly lifted, its impressive) but will keep the center dome down and prevent damage. You would again traditionally enter in a right circle going around the centre where on your right side you would find the kitchen area, center back a seating area and on the left the sleeping and washing area. And the last one I know of; with the centre being the centre point of energy (literally with the stove being there) you don't pass through the centre 2 uprights as to not disturb that energy. There's even thought in the Kris cross pattern and knotting of the wall but I'm not to sure of that one. As i said earlier the heat management is amazing in them, with a good centre stove everything revolves around them; cook, eat, bake bread etc. Quite amazing structures really, very peaceful to live in. Any way that's all I know!

[@kindlydude]

How awesome! Thanks for your in-depth knowledge and short primer on traditional yurts from Mongolia/Tibet/Khazakstan, etc. I wonder what specific country this yurt was designed after. Anyway, it's absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

[@thomasherrin6798]

Not quite yet, floor to finish off so a couple of days and doing burning when the tents up must be out of the question, plan B!?!

[@kindlydude]

@@thomasherrin6798 At the very least Dan will have to pin up the sides of the tent & pin up the sides of the tent and only burn in the middle, not the very edges and have a coupe of buckets of water ready to douse any errant flames. Then he can paint the very edge of the platform in an oil-based water proof paint, along with the outside edges and the edges of the insulation to waterproof the bit on the outside as well. He could even paint the lower portion of the lattice work that touches the platform for extra measure. The yurt is beautiful!!!

Such a nice home to live in while you are rebuilding the château. So happy to see the new, safer scaffolding too. The boys are going to be so excited to see the yurt and sleep over with their dad. Looking forward to seeing how you decorate the inside. Not sure a heat source works in a yurt. Thank God you have permanent shelter for the winter months. Get plenty of rest Dan. Hope you take a couple of days off to rejuvenate. Love from Northern California to you and your family. ❤

Stunning Yurt Dan! Are you sure your not a globe trotter?!? LOL The new scaffolding is amazing! Nothing can hold you back now!

[@peterfrance702]

Congratulations Dan! A dry space! So lucky that rain didn't come earlier.

Dan, my man you ever cease to amaze me as to what you manage to get done on your own. Great work! Can wait to see you have somewhere to sleep well after a hard days work.

Wow!! A yurt and ridiculously high scaffolding in one day!! And all that floor prep Great job Dan!!

[@debshaw680]

Hopefully once it’s furnished inside it will encourage you to take some more down time. A lot of people do the floors with layers of rugs to keep the floors warm in winter. It’s really beautiful inside and out. I hope you put some beautiful furniture in there and a proper desk for editing.

Hi Dan, that’s such a great progress. Oh, I get it, you’re tired! You really need a crew to support you. I guess we are all part of your team. I’m so thankful KZbin exist, so we can watch you every week.❤

So glad you have a proper place to live now. Tents are not a long-term solution. Rest up. Lots more to do!

Dan keeps amazing me, he must be the only person I know who would still be whistling at 2 AM after working all day, knowing he has little sleep left and another crazy day ahead. Keep up the positivity Dan!!!
