Cob: Re: Cob book (The Book)Micheal and Linda Fox mandlfox at msn.comWed Aug 21 06:17:28 CDT 2002
I'm by no means experienced but I do have that book. I've found it to be quite helpful. The first experiment is a sod roof doghouse in my back yard. It seems to be going well; the foundation is done and I've got about 8 inches of wall up all the way 'round. My feet hurt. But the book is helpful. I've also got Kiko's earth oven book. That'll be experiment #2.
