Cob: lime plaster

[Patricia L. MacKenzie]

Bonjour, Monsieur Tallendier,

Je suis American. Now that I have said hello properly, I got your message 
today as a flyer from coblist at deatech.com, which is a newsletter whose www 
address I don't have handy.

One of the things you might hear of is to contact a Charmaine Taylor of 
Taylor Publishing and Elk River Press. Although she is a publisher, she is 
also an author. Several of her books are related to cob building, probably 
she provides advice to people out of the country and or sales availability 
and has so far been the only one publishing and presenting hand methodology.

The email I have is tms at northcoast.com, address PO Box 6985, Eureka, CA 
(USA) 95502 phone/fax is 1-707-441-1632. I'm providing the regular phone 
because I don't know if the 800 number works in India.

I personally, though I haven't ordered (funds) yet recommend the Dirt Cheap 
Houses Guidebook, and two others, specific. They are: Case studies of 
traditional lime harling (aka plaster), Scottish Lime Centre; Building with 
Lime: a practical introduction, Stafford Holme;  or check on the web for 
www.lime.org.

I'm sending this info to you, even if you contact Ms. Taylor cause I have 
only the 1998 catalog and I can't order right now. Hope she forgives my 
usurption. The stuff is copyrighting in the catalog but I also depend on 
sales of stuff to make money.

Good luck and hope this helps.
Patty
