So I'm almost done with construction. I chose to connect all the wall panels together, and yea the block is a bit large, but nothing unmanageable. I can still carry it by myself which is all that matters for me =P I finished one of the roof pieces last night by myself in a matter of 2 hours in my living room, with really only enough floor space for one 4x8 attached to one triangle piece at a time and just folded it on itself every time I finished a hinge. Worked like a charm. I'm finishing the prefab today and I'll take some pictures when I move it outside to see how everything fits, and I'll take more when I have my camp mates come over for our test build before the Burn. I definitely second andrea's question about tape anchors though. What is the best pattern to drape the tape anchors over the yurt in combination with a rope halo?
