Cob RE: 'used' concrete foundationcrtaylor tms at northcoast.comThu May 14 09:44:35 CDT 1998
> CCC suggests this idea as well in their workshops and book. HA! I just piled up a big carload of small conrete chunks into may back yard for the foundation of a cob bench I am building as a demonstration. Becky Bee's ones in her book got me enthusiastic to build, and I don't need a whole house so the bench was great. She even told me using concrete rubble as the visable base was OK too, you just dont want water/moisture to wick up through the foundation into the cob basewall. SO I will lay a layer of heavy mil pastic under the rubble then build on top of that. Charmaine R.
