About six months ago we began building a multi-functional building on our land. We needed a structure to hold the water tank as well as future solar panels. In an effort to stack as many functions as possible we also included a small toolshed at the main level of the water tower and here is the resulting building!
We used a variety of techniques: a wooden frame, recycled bottles, and DIY windows, as well as a local building technique called quincha, cob, and finally the lime plaster. While the part one of this series focused on the construction of the walls, this video is all about the cob and lime plasters as well as how we made both.
This toolshed was something we worked on during weekends and afternoon sessions. Sometimes we had to wait for materials to arrive, the rain to pass, or simple were working on other aspects of the homestead. Everything takes time and I am glad we put the time, effort, and vision into this project.
