Cob: Fastening to cob walls

What I used to fasten things to cob walls are 6 inch deck screws.  If you go straight in they do not have a lot of holding power, but if several screws  are put in at different angles, they hold well.  Fasten a board to the wall this way and then fasten your cupboards to this board.  Good luck
