Cob: Re: Re: how much per ton?

[Frances Grill]

Not that I really care to get involved in this discussion(it is humorous
enough without my input), but the cost of AZ. Flagstone  from a dealer in
Tucson AZ. is 175$/ton for large size stones (11/2 tons per pallet. It costs
140$/ton for smaller stones +-2 tons per pallet varying from 1-2 inches
thick. If you wanted the load sorted for more uniform size it may cost up to
200$/ton. A ton covers about 120-140 sq.ft. It comes in several "earth
tones" oddly enough, but I don't think that is relevant to this discussion.
These prices are predicated on your picking the stone up at the Adobe
