Ohhh I'm even in love with the guy😍, he's personality the way he talks.🤗 I'm must say they all did a very good job. I'm willing to try it out with my family. I'm hundred percent they will love it. Keep on posting so we can learn more. Sending love from south Africa 🇿🇦❤♥💕

[@davidearle7209]

I saw a documentary once of a small African village that used this very technique to build they're homes. good to see it's made it's way to America.

[@shawnmartin1289]

Awesome! Pretty complete steps in there too!

It's a sauna

[@briahwater9358]

yeah , i love earth people , nice documentair , in few months i also go living of grid :)

[@NCLUSA]

At the end of the video there was a shot of a metal shed in the back ground, damn good looking metal shed (:

[@39Thorns]

7 years later, can we get an update on how this structure is working out as a sauna? I would be interested in its long-term reaction to heat and steam on the inside, how the interior holds up, if any mildew formed, problems, etc. Its a nice size and shape for a sauna, but heating up the upper reaches of the dome might take a long time. Saunas typically have low ceilings so the heat stays down where the bodies are.

[@maryam-vj7ho]

It would be nice to see after building a dome house body transformation 😂😂😂😂😂😂 great job btw

[@rachelhudson4662]

I will be building one of these to practice yoga, prayer flag making and moon cup changing.

[@cherrypick6315]

NIce work! Where did this take place ? Who is the guy teaching it ?

[@mce1919A4]

Nice job.

[@Jaden48108]

I can see a musician playing some tunes with the echoes going on. Natural reverb.

[@ImaSpeck2011]

What was the reason for doing that test with the jars? If it was to test the strength shouldn't that be done before construction began?

[@Retirementertainment]

Brilliant where do you get the roll of bags please

Is that black cotton soil, how do you do the mix to achieve stability of the soil?

A house that doesn't cost you the rest of your life? How's the .01% supposed to afford their lavish lifestyles then? Where's the kindness?

We've been finding the 1% way to long. They still get our taxes.

[@isabelavila5163]

@Shalong Gagenspofz I don’t understand how some people of European ancestry are so overwhelming concerned about a fictional European cultural genocide when that’s exactly what Europeans have been doing around the world to others. It must be some kind of guilt paranoia that others will do what Europeans have long done to them? But I think others may be more enlightened to cause such destruction. If you are in Australia, please remember that IS NOT Europe and you should respect the original people of the land as the ultimate caretakers. To prioritize yourself in someone else’s country is self centered and ethnocentric.

[@francojohnathon]

Amazing!!!! It's beautiful and inspiring.

[@kumkumjain9864]

fabulous building +technique... wish i cld hv a home like this in india

[@Retirementertainment]

Will do thank you 👍

[@gavinwalsh5238]

I wonder if it would be worth it to add roman concrete to the mix so over time it gets stronger and stronger/

[@whiskeytangonorth8724]

never heard of that, now I have to look it up

[@lorenlash9174]

Strange there wasn't a shout out to Nader Khalili for having come up with this super adobe dome technique.

[@isabstmr]

Beautiful! How did you make the hole for the pipe to heater?

[@thomasmurray4717]

Has anyone tried pumping aircrete into these bags?it seems like it may be faster and possibly as strong.

[@ledihealinghandsholidaythe3240]

I thought about sraying the outside with air create and spreading it

[@cinthiajimenez5060]

the mixture. 10 to 1 . I know 10 is the dirt but it is the 1 water?

[@mitchflanigan1546]

great video!! Can an earth bag wall/dome be used to withstand lateral loads as in a basement or retaining wall?

[@gelfling3250]

Building a meditation/sauna room you say. Won't the cob/plaster fall off the walls with all that steam/heat and moisture?

[@Komadin]

I'm sure the finish they used inside is used to combat the moisture.. I'm not sure how they'd do it any other way

[@larful]

I like you guys and I like your video

[@zigggyyyc7342]

Are there still workshops running for this in Melbourne?

[@Jfreek5050]

Huh. Its almost like flexible legos!

[@NickRalph]

Hey guys! Great video and I am inspired to do my own retaining wall and veggie patch hybrid. Can you PLEASE let me know where you purchase the long uncut UV treated polypropylene rolls from? I can only find the pre cut bags. Located in Melbourne.

Also you can buy them from cal-tech. Superadobe structures.

I never would have thought a dome roof would work with earth bag construction. I guess I was wrong.

[@SeeTheWholeTruth]

Neat, couldnt get me to build it without some rebar though. Trust and all that is great, but.. peace of mind is better for me. But what am I saying.. a little dome thingy.. wouldnt be worth it at all to me. HOUSE, then we are talking.

[@miguelfilo962]

Esp a meditation/sauna room. What a waste of time & space. Keep the hippies busy.

[@randomjoy8411]

how much did it cost to build ?

[@shanerobinson800]

Random Joy I've heard of people building bigger than this for $10/square foot this roundhouse with out cost of labor and permits probably cost $3000 to build or less

Funny how they try to make this out to be such a complex process to discourage people. You can do this very simply without all this mess.

The individual that stated in Africa that the whole village comes together to build a young couple a home, wanted to note that the Christian church's used to do the same... Time to bring back the community churches being involved. The Amish still do this, think the other churches should do the same.

I don't know how long will that plastic bag last before it decinagrates and the dirt falls out you should have used Adobe brick would have been way cheaper and last forever and way better for the environment and it would have looked better to it just seems rediculas to use bags with dirt hopefully you won't have any gophers or desert rats or ground squirrels good luck hope you did your homework

One question, why do these people all sound the same? I'm going to do this myself but I don't speak like a wanker.

I would like to say something good about this project, it's over, Good!!. What a waste of time, too much labor, too much time and the end product looks like it might make a poor dog house.
