Cob: Earthen plaster over plywood siding?Carl Vilbrandt carl at ggpl.orgSun Apr 7 21:19:22 CDT 2002
Robert Plywood -- has depending on the glue mixture up to 17 pounds of heavy metal to keep the glue for being eaten by mold and fungi. The glue mixtures for plywood contain flour, arsenic, animal blood and a thermal set plastic. All of the above is bad to cut and or burn. The amount of plywood tonnage used continues to increase each year. It is not a sustainable material and its use should be very limited. It was a bit chilling to come to know that animal blood is a part of plywood and most of the walls of buildings (using plywood) we all live in are literally coated with it. It makes you want to believe in the "beast". I think twice about using plywood now and always wear a mask. The blood (BSD) makes plywood a bio hazard .. P.S. Don't' use sawdust from plywood on the garden - Carl Robert B Krueger wrote: > Hi cob list, > > Can anyone tell me if an earthen plaster would work over plywood (it is > actually plywood with wooden bat over the seams)??
