Sorry, K J, I do not quite grasp, what you mean. Are you suggesting a pyramid with a triangular base?
I that case you would have problems with contact at the joints, as two pieces would not match at
the same plane, but I am really at a loss at visualizing your concept. Would the plywood sheet be at
the bottom? In that case it would cut off the warming effect of the ground below. Also a door
would be unnecessary, as in winter it would only let cold air in and in warm weather the whole
structure, weighing only a couple of pounds can easily be lifted off.

But I am just tapping in the dark, because I do not understand your proposed configuration.
