[Cob] Mesh/webbing choices> interior walls

Wed Jan 24 11:14:17 CST 2007

Charmaine makes an excellent point about webbing from
carpet.  Some people have been framing interior walls
with 2x4s spaced quite far apart (non-loadbearing) and
have nailed/stapled used carpeting across them on each
side.  The backing is facing out to the room.  The
insides can be filled with light straw clay, cob,
whatever and the backing takes a nice earthen plaster.
Relatively thin, landfill materials, straight walls
(but only if that's what you like).

Be careful and make sure that you pull your carpet
REALLY tight as it does tend to sag as plaster wets
and weighs it down a bit.

Have fun  :)
