[Cob] Coblist Digest, Vol 8, Issue 72

Hello everybody,

I need some ideas for attaching a cob studio to the top of my storm
cellar in north Texas.  Cellar is concrete and comes out of the ground
about 3 feet with about 4 feet underground.  I initially thought of
anchoring all-thread to the top of the cellar around the perimeter and
wrapping with baling twine to give cob something to grab onto.  If
there is any other way, however, without having to put holes in the
cellar I would love to hear it.... It would be fantastic if I could
just gob cob on top knowing that the sheer weight of an 8 foot wall
would be enough to keep it from shifting but I think that's too good
to be true.  Anybody have any good ideas? I look forward to hearing
from y'all!

Thank you,
Heather
