Cob: cob blocks?

Tue Jan 7 17:07:22 CST 2003

has anyone tried making blocks (like maybe say 12W" X 12H" x 16L" )with cob 
and then stacking and plastering them??
i plan on making a few (and maybe a few more) just to see what happens. i 
read of a shop somewhere in the uk (not university of kentucky but the united 
kingdom, just a bit of info for all y'all from kansas who wish you were in 
the sec or acc instead of in kansas)  that makes and uses them for repair of 
older buildings but i was wondering about for new ones. something to do in 
the basement while waiting for winter to end
have a great night
