[Cob] Dry mixing & Cement Mixers familiar methods

One job I had, we all seemed to envy those who could learn from someone 
else's experience and not have to do it on our own.  For some reason it 
never worked that way though.

(The reason might have been spelled M A N A G E M E N T.  You do not want to 
know the details)

In somewhat nicer ways, it may be true of making cob--other earthen 
mixtures--as well.  It's pretty forgiving, although I think I pushed the 
limits when I was chinking the barn's room.  There are probably about as 
many ways to do it right as there are to grow corn.   But knowing what 
worked for someone else is a pretty good place to start.

If we were to treat Cobbing as a science, and were to document

our findings in the same manner, IE an outline to keep notes by.

And we were to publish said data on this forum. Then we would not

have to re-invent the wheel each time an aspect of cobbling would

be encountered.

I understand that there are people on this forum that are much more

versed at cobbing than I am... And it will take someone with a

" done that, been there " experience to put together an outline for

documentation...

Am I all wet,, or would an outline for independent research be useful?

All wet willy???
