[Cob] cordwoodDamon Howell dhowell at pickensprogress.comTue Jan 13 08:59:55 CST 2009
Since my cob project is coming along at record slow speed, i thought of finishing it this spring with cordwood. The wall is between knee and waist height now. I don't see it looking funny because I've been incorporating big rocks that jut from the wall. I'll still be mixing some cob, but believe the construction will go much faster. Plus I assume I'd get better insulation value from the foot thick wood rounds. I'm still going to have all cob and windows on the east and south sides, but cordwood for the other two. It seems simple enough, but just in case it's completely the wrong thing to do, someone please let me know. Damon in GA
