We are going to make a mold out of damp sand and do layers of cob and a final coat of mortar for the upper. There will also be a chimney. My husband has the whole thing planned out in detail. I, along with the children, are the mud and rock labor force.
Ha ha ha! Be careful what you ask for! We got through most of what I said we were going to do today, just have one layer of cob left and the outer coat of mortar. Will post part two as soon as we complete that!
On it! To get the mud just right took a lot of bicep and tricep work, definitely feeling it!!
you betcha. What kind of stones will you be using for the upper structure?
