Hi, and sorry for the late reply... Hal is very busy this year so we will not be running a teaching workshop as such . We will, however be finishing off a coppiced ash yurt started last year and Hal will be leading the team if you are interested... This should be happening early to mid aApril for around five days. Contact me at aaron@beshara.org if this appeals. There is also a forestry fortnight starting mid -march...
For anyone interested we will hopefully be running similar courses but longer and more detailed in 2012
Also check out the Foundations of Natural Intelligence courses which take place entirely in the very Yurts we have made...and the video on this channel...
Music is a Turkish folk song. It is about blessings for a bride. Pazarda bal var gelinim pazarda bal var Sende bir hal var gelinim sende bir hal var Ağana yalvar gelinim paşana yalvar gelinim Ah deyle gelin gelmeye kıymetli gelin Gelinim gözelim de kınan kutl'olsun Hem orda hem burda dilin tatl'olsun Pazarın üstü gelinim pazarın üstü Yar yara küstü gelinim yar yara küstü Güveyim uslu gelinim güveyim uslu Ah deyle gelin gelmeye kıymetli gelin Gelinim gözelim de kınan kutl'olsun Hem etc etc..
True... it helps to have many hands and hearts. Good luck with your project and come and visit us sometime. Hopefully in 2012 we will be running some more courses possibly week- long etc
@besharaschool Hi, I was interested in your 2012 yurt building courses as my Girlfriend is also. I'm a seasoned woodsman/craftsman and my Girlfriend is a keen and competent seamstress and we would love the opportunity to be able to attend.... Are the courses voluntary? Many thanks
Loved what you did, but have to say f I had all those handy tools and all those wonderful people maybe I too could build one in 3days. lol
I love it when people come together to work like this, such a wonderful part of human nature. Thanks for this very very good instructional video, now all I need is to get me some good folks to help.
I would like to know what the name of the tool is called @1:59 to 2:08 into the video? ( The tool thats used to round of ends of dowels and pieces of willow). Thanks :-)
Locally sourced Green Oak for all the trellis, roof spars and crown ring - and willow spars in the crown. The oak is treated with Linseed oil (3 coats Minimum) and the willow is treated with Borax to keep woodworm out.
wow - gives me goosebumps. the same skill was practised - what - a few thousand years ago? probably with the same apparent ease, collaboration, friendship, laughs. shelter - one of our basic human needs.
Great video! For rustic furniture making I've been looking for the tool shown at 2:00, but no clue what it's called! Does anyone here know?
