Apparently I will be living in one for a few months. Any tips or links on building one?

4. Kidding
Here's a DIY project from Mother Earth News

Still seems rather involved.

2. Friend of ours has built one. It has been a loooonnnnngggg process.
He has made a gorgeous home though. All by hand, no kit. He doesn't have a website unfortunately but just google yurt and you will find everything you ever need to know about yurts.
