DIY Deck Platform For A Belle Tent (Or A Yurt)

DIY Deck Platform For A Belle Tent (Or A Yurt)

Have you ever dreamed of living in a belle tent or a yurt but were a bit unsure of how to build a platform for it? In this video, we show you how it’s done.

An amazing opportunity has come up for us to experiment with another form of downsized living – in this case, a lotus belle tent (http://www.lotusbelle.com)! We will be living in the tent structure while we finish construction of the Tiny House.

Check out the finished platform here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fcx1camn9mo

Hey, can you please share your budget for the deck platform here?

TruthBTold says:

Nice job! We really enjoy all your videos. Thank you! BTW my 11 yr. old son giggled whenever you said the word "deck."

Raynor says:

WTF is he saying? It sounds like "dick".

Ricky says:

Beautiful dick

Tyrone B says:

I try to have my dick covered by a ten as well. But I am not sure I would use the dick-a-gone for my dick. More of the safer hexagonal shape, especially in wet and moist areas. A word of caution when trying to set your ten down on your dick, make sure you have prepared the holes so you have a stable platform.

Andre EWERT says:

I would have surface- charred the posts in the Fire to seal them and make them more resistant to rot. Keep it up.

Peya Luna says:

cool stuff, but i wonder how do you keep the posts from rotting away?

Jake Glazier says:

Doesn't concrete eat wood away. What happens when the wood rote's away inside that concrete. Must guess is its going to collapse

EPIC EBIKES says:

I sell quality and affordable Platforms/foundation with Flooring that is easy to assemble. 1993travis@gmail.com Just let me know size of your yurt for a price quote. and also if you like a Yurt I get amazing deal on them I can pass along much cheaper than other companies especially when the platform is shipped together with yurt.

Dave Clark says:

What length are the vertical uprights to hold the straps?

Nadya King says:

Lovely! I lived in an octagonal house about the same radius for a year, a wonderful and quite comfortable space! I was given a little half round table that just don't under one window for an altar.
