Maybe part of the build van be made *inside* a bigger one that's already built?

I've done a paper model (can't see skp from phone) and I end up with 4 unused small triangles. Also, I make more cuts than described. ???

So, if someone could do a flat model of the cuts, I'd really really appreciate it - I'm just very slow at understanding 3D.

Looks like the family of *shapes* can't grow much more (devilish grin). For plywood, I wonder what the solution space is for *joints*.

The landscape looks good!

    Absolutely lovely piece of work, Gavin. Absolutely lovely. I think
    this would make an *excellent* first build hexayurt for people going
    to Burning Man with a hexayurt for the first time. Not a ton of space,
    but *so incredibly easy to build* because it doesn't have the complex
    taping of the roof cone, which can be a challenge for first timers.

    Great work.
