Good job guys. Even in Mongolia youngsters don’t know how to build the ger. This video is very useful. Thank you very much.

I was hoping for the full build from making the foundation to making the door, ect. This was nice for what it was though, just not enough information for me.

Can you glue on Velcro pieces, so you don't have to put weights on top of your yurt? Especially if you have little toddlers and or animals that, weights may fall off and injure a person, or animal. I'm asking bc, I have no idea how heavy or secure the the top of the yurt is.

[Gubancosful]

Thank you. But where is the stove jack if you cover the whole top?

[hayter]

is the base portable? ie is it suitable for mutlpile construction for events? or could the structure go direct onto the ground?

[Galternatives]

Cost of only the tent? Without floor, sink ect.

Do you need planning permission if u own the land
