Cob: Couple Of Questionssnakedancer at gulftel.com snakedancer at gulftel.comWed Jul 17 20:52:24 CDT 2002
Hello all. A couple of questions here. It looks as though this may become a reality. Anyway, my father brought up a question. Little background....my Mom and Dad were really sad to hear about me selling our house since we all built it until I told them about doing a cob. LOL kinda like Tom Sawyer and white wasging the fence. Anyway he was wondering how long can the wall you are working on sit like between building. What if it dries before you egt back to putting more cob on it. Is this something that once you start you must saty on it or can it go two or three days between applications of cob. Will it make it weak. Like pouring concrete letting one section dry and pouring the next. It becomes weak at that point. Next, I was looking at some of the sites when I first started out on this quest and ran across a home in Tennessee that sits on 59 acres I believe and was being sold for 259K. It was very beautiful and sitting in a valley. I wanted to show my family but I can't seem to find it again. If someone knows about it would you let me know where to find the pics so I can show them. Thanks. CJ
