I think you'd very likely be OK in a good thick marine ply, but that's a
question for a structural engineer - we don't want anybody crossing their
fingers and having a hexayurt fall on them!
In general, once you move out of the "foam and cardboard" domain into real

If you're not far away, maybe we could share
