Cob school in Florida

[@sunshinechaser]

These kids are absolutely adorable! I must say you did a fine job at getting them focused and in tune to cob house building!

[@k8m883]

Your are so inspiring thank you. I am excited to be planning our home for my daughter and I and it will be our small cosy sanctuary that we will fill with laughter, joy and happy memories.

Great so glad you like best of luck with your project

I love everything about your building methods, and am planning to utilize them for my homestead soon. I am very curious as to the deck's construction. What a wonderful and ingenious way to build a foundation that also serves as a floor! Any chance for quick video or description on their construction? Thanks for all the informative and inspiring videos! Keep them coming! The world needs so much more of this!

[@cobalot9]

Cool, thanks! I actually didn't build the deck, but I know the uprights were a couple feet deep in concrete. I don't know of any good videos, maybe check around on you tube ..

I would love to actually talk to you about classes if you give them doing palatable Cobb buildings and I would like to know a little bit more about doing it in California and how you’re doing it because I’m looking to buy land there anyway yeah let me know how to get a hold of you. Thank you so much really enjoy what you’re doing.

Hi Miguel,how do I make a cob floor?

[@k8m883]

How does the insulation stuffed single pallet thickness preform in cold climates?

[@cobalot9]

It performs fine but you would still need a heat source inside the house. It's not as warm as a full strawbale house would be, but it's pretty good

[@holzdamolz]

Hi Migz, do you know of any cob workshops or teachers in Australia or New Zealand?

[@nated186]

Did you cut birdsmouth to attatch the rafters to the walls, or was there an easier method, that I cant see?

[@cobalot9]

Actually no, we just put the Cypress poles set on top of the top plate using 6 inch lugs. Then used hurricane ties ..

[@nated186]

Oh, ok got it. Thanks! I live an hour from there and want to check it out during one of their events, one of these days.

[@rumyanakoprinkova3295]

Is this pallets HT /heat treat/?

[@cobalot9]

Yes, of course. I would not use chemically treated pallets ..
