    If this is “fast” cob building, how slow is regular cob building?

    misleading title, (re)search for word *cob*
    and if you do it right (*cob*) it wouldn’t take much longer then shown on
    this video
    I’m reacting in interest of safety cause some people could actually try to
    do something like this .. study materials and techniques well folks ..
    nothing that last long is easy and quick ;)

    How the he’ll does an earthen building “purify toxins ” ? That’s the kind
    of stupid hippy Shit that makes what is otherwise a good building media and
    turns it into a laughing subject.

    Fast? This is the down-side to the best construction media for a home. It
    has to be made efficient or it will never be used on a large scale and that
    is a great shame.

    day , a lot easier .i filled in the frame of a house 7meters square ,with a
    wall in between .rendered it with lime and sand .

    So in the SE USA where it rains a lot, how does this work? Once it dries
    will it really stay and not get washed away? Seems like at the very least,
    the wall should be fired once dry. No?

    If I made a cob chicken coop, I know the chickens would be pulling on the
    straw. Is there any way They won’t destroy the coop eventually?

    Hello there. I have a puzzle with regards to use a straw in cob mix.

    I am in a process of making walls of my cob house. I have dried some
    samples of mud plates to test a strenght when dry. I came to conclusion
    that the mud plate of 10cm x 10cm x 2cm whithout straw was more dificult do
    broken that one using a straw.

    During last 5 years watching videos and reading about the cob structures
    everyone using in their cob mix a straw.

    Based on my findings I am a bit confused. With the clay earth I have
    available whether or not to use a straw. I would be most thankful for any
    useful info. Gracias, from Peru Michal.
