I built it over two weekends. In my opinion it is more of a semi-permanent type of shelter and that it would require too much effort for an overnight shelter unless the weather was extremely wet or cold.

I have the Naked Into The Wilderness books, one and two, by John and Geri McPherson. The show how to build a pirimitive shelter that any man, no matter how tall or big, could be comfortable in.

Very nice shelters indeed. I have always thought that any shelter in the wilderness no matter how it is constructed provides a sense of security because we are all so used to living in houses. Try sleeping out in the open if you haven't in a long time. One of my favorite shelters was built In a video on youtube by Ray Mears. It is of a 5 pole design with a sleeping area and a fire inside. Very cool.
