Cob: Cob sticking to the foundation

Fri Nov 3 20:54:48 CST 2000

Coblist;
        I do not think that you will ever have a problem with the first layer of cob adhering to the foundation, be it rough or smooth.  Of the two cob cabins I have built, the smaller one contained 120,000 pounds of stone, clay and sand.  The second one contained 250,000 pounds.  With that kind of weight the buildings will go no where but down.
                                                                Patrick
