In a message dated 98-10-30 02:11:58 EST, you write: << Not necessarily. If you FIRE the cob it can become waterproof, because it essentially becomes pottery. >> >SMILE< Wow, the subterrain Inferno.... Details at 11:00...... BTW You cannot truly fire Cob. The Straw fibres involved become carbon and ash and this weakens the "PseudoPottery". Aside from that I KNOW you have seen a 30 or 55 gallon steel drum. A cistern of useful size will be well in the 3000 Gallon plus size (if you have smallish needs and fairly constant rainfall) and thus would be a AWESOME Underground Pottery Creation. Interesting Thought, Tho. :-)!! Michael
