Since my cob project is coming along at record slow speed, i thought
of finishing it this spring with cordwood. The wall is between knee
and waist height now. I don't see it looking funny because I've been
incorporating big rocks that jut from the wall. I'll still be mixing
some cob, but believe the construction will go much faster. Plus I
assume I'd get better insulation value from the foot thick wood
rounds. I'm still going to have all cob and windows on the east and
south sides, but cordwood for the other two. It seems simple enough,
but just in case it's completely the wrong thing to do, someone
please let me know.
