Was this before or after that guy from the primative technology channel on youtube started uploading?
Your shelter looks quite shitty for having spent 6 months with it. A nigger could build a grass hut that looks nicer honestly.
Having said that, I wouldn't know how long said nigger would take to construct anything, nor do I know what challenges you might have faced.
This was back in 2014. I didn't build this, but I did learn how to build structures like it, and structures even bigger and nicer. They had nicer buildings to live in. I chose to sleep in this at night. I wasn't trying to vacation at some resort, I was trying to experience REAL LIFE. I wanted to test myself and see what I'm really made of. Yes, it was shitty, leaked a lot when it rained, and was full of bugs, and I could hear things moving around at night only a couple of feet from my hut.
Have you seen this chick on youtube who makes huts in the jungle? She would a big help to have around. Cause damn. https://m.youtube.com/c/survivalshelterideas/
That is fake as shit. Notice how they skip HUGE portions of her 'building' and show just a few low effort clips of her making some very small adjustment. A crew does the work and videos her. Look at the views, 29 million views? Think of the add revenue.

Yes, I have seen her. I think she is in the Philippines. I was in South America. I was given a jungle wife by the chief which helped out a lot.
Sounds rough but also amazing. In the past year I've gotten real into camping, and each time going a bit lighter with my gear. There is nothing better to clear your head and escape the day to day than this. Hoping I can do something like this in the future
Primitive technology and similar channels are full of shit, they often use modern tools and heavy machinery off camera, nothing primitive about it.
