    Amanda, What a find in that URL you reommended! Thank you very much. The information found is quite extensive. I have been involved in all aspects of standard building for 28 years and have not seen such a good distillation of useable building data cob builders should find of use.
    Carole and I will be building a cob home most likely next Spring in Colorado. The wealth of info from all you Cobbers out there is very welcome. We find that the challenge designing a cob structure extremely rewarding. We are enjoying the mindstretching and 'grounding' just thinking about our cob home does to us.
    More to come, and thanks again,
    Mitch and Carole
