I think you should get a used shipping container as dry storage for your belongings and building supplies.
That way they are safe and dry and you have an indoor workshop.
You can later sell it or clad it and use it as a workshop, garage or else.
With the cold season coming soon, you need to build wood storage, chop fire wood, organize water and get a toilet.
Make sure you locate the wood storage half way between the yurt and outhouse so you can bring in fire wood, each time you use the restroom.
You also need to build a well insulated storage cubby to house your solar panel batteries or they will freeze and you are without power.
Happened to Martijn Doolaard.
Get a large solar setup.
That way you could power/ build a sauna to keep clean and give your aching muscles some relief.
If seen some yurt owners add a “winter garden” to their front entrance. They use it to store firewood, keep their boots, cold storage when it’s not below freezing.

Nice for the summer rain to point out where needs attention yurtwise……. So that when winter comes you are completely watertight, wind proof, safe and snug, not having to deal with these issues in the cold. Thanks for welcoming us all along on your journey. I’ve loved watching your subscribers grow and your daily progress. A bonus for us that we’ll be seeing you tomorrow 😊

Humble suggestion. .. add on that extra section of scaffolding so that you're winch is situated ABOVE you and you can bring material level with you.

Like I always say: "Its a good day when you can remove the trees growing on your roof."

[peterwbryce]

Bracing the scaffolding off the interior walls is a very good idea!

[margiemistretta]

I'm so happy for the more stable scaffolding

You need to build a covered porch to your yurt entrance.
It also may be a good idea to install a floor channel drain by your front entrance, directing the water to the sides.

Loved the creative shots- tumbling with the cement mixer was fun! Ha! If it’s raining so much- you should set up a rain collection system!

This is such a unique story, I will have to go back to the beginning and watch in order. The music, the quiet letting the work speak for itself and the drama of the heights ( my stomach clenches each episode) along with the sheer impossible task to complete has me hooked. And there is artistry in the videos that is compelling.

Can we just talk about how many different cameras and camera angles Dan uses? Has anyone counted in any video how many? Love seeing the rooftop garden go!

[jimcarlisle]

This renovation can change your life, this is. Million dollar Property! A real gold mine!
A piece of history! Think about things before you do, have a plan and follow through! Great videos!

Seeing those small trees getting removed from the upper parts of the Chateau: satisfying.

[jesschee]

What a view. So happy you are on sturdy scaffolding. Hope your yurt stays dry now.

[spokinabout]

can't believe it took you this long to put the camera on your mixer barrel! it's just so YOU! always a pleasure. carry on.

[martinbarker]

People asking for rain in the USA good luck my friends. It's done nothing but rain all summer, in fact, we haven't had one. We've seen your weather and wish you all the very best from across the pond.

[loucat]

Jealous of your energy, Dan. I had plenty when I was your age, too. So much fun and fascinating also. Thank you so much for bringing us along for the ride!

[PJ-fhkc]

My stomach is still turning after the 'ride' in the cement mixer!!

[lindasteller]

Daniel, you are the king of your castle. I'm so excited for you. I hope the yurt dries out.

[tinathene]

So satisfying to see the upstairs trees being removed and that long distance view from your balcony put a real heartfelt smile on my face. Good video, Dan! Happy Waterproofing! That sturdy scaffolding must feel so. Damn. good. ❤ Godspeed
