Have you looked at this site yet <A href="http://www.deatech.com/cobcottage/coboven.html">http://www.deatech.com/cobcottage/coboven.html</A> Great idea starting with an oven!! I was thinking of making one that looked like a fish to see how warm the tail would get when it was all fired up. Big enough so I could snuggy* in on a cold night and watch the stars while the pizza cooks! I think that I will build the door first and then fit the oven around it to get a tight fit. The author of the book suggests the other way round but I got my reservations? </P> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <P>Earth buildings are still up an running all over Europe for hundreds of years with weather much like ours. </P> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <P>I still think we are going to have a mild winter but I'm an optimist to the bitter end. My horses didn't get much of a second coat and that's how I judge. Soooo they lied!!??</P> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <DIV></DIV> <P>Also check out <A href="mailto:lapaix at iolinc.net">lapaix at iolinc.net</A> Myra is going to have a cobbing this spring. </P> <P> Or give her a call 304-269-7681 we're not far away as the crow fly's, much longer if you take the bus.
