In a message dated 98-10-29 09:30:34 EST, you write: << How do you go about making a cistern out of cob? Is it water tight with just the cob, or does it need to have some sort of coating? Thanks, Jen >> ??? Cob is Mud and Straw mixed together and dried as building material. As a Cistern?? A water holding structure?? Maybe you are asking about the 1/3 rd Lime to Earth Mixture to stablize earth into a sort of Roman Cement? Cobbers can correct me if I am in error. Be gentle please <G> Michael
