[Cob] % Lime putty -recipe for volume use

[phil]

I forgot to mention the thing about vinegar. This past summer after working with cob, very well aged clay plasters mixes, and lime putty, I found that washing with a mixture of baking soda and vinegar with a little natural soap made my hands feel nice and soft again. Takes the smell out from the clay that may have gone anaerobic as well!

keep  a bottle of white /cider vinegar- it  will stop the harsh drying action of lime to the hands/skin immediately.  Just risnse hands with vinegar, THEN wash well, soap alone will not stop the "pruning" of   your fingers.
