Its my first year 2 and we don't have a home depot near by. I went a head and bought perma R at lowes But now am starting 2 regret the decision bc of the strength factor. Do u think we should return it and start over? We can get 2 a home depot but there r all at least 2-3 hours away. Other wise I was thinking we could strengthen it by adding a board on the back. Any feedback would b much appreciated! Thanks eva. Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

I've looked at lowes and they do have the perma R but its made from polystyrene ( see material specs on their site ) which most do not recommend since its flimsy and can break somewhat easily. it is however 10 bucks a sheet. the thermax and Rmax ( which I found yesterday at homedepot.com ) is made from rigid polyisocyanurate foam. so the bottom line is foam not polystyrene for a solid yurt. however as I found out the 1 inch is 19 bucks a sheet and the polystyrene is 10 bucks. also the poly ican be a moop issue on the playa http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1v/R-100549260/h_d2/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=10051&catalogId=10053 i just purchased over the phone for pick up in salt lake city on the way there from austin. byt the way I'm from cornwall originally. come by and say hi on playa. ask for fouffypanns at the artery @ 6.15 and esplanade will be around for next few days, so feel free to skype or email.
