First of all, Wow what a site this is, spent the last week just reading some of the stuff on here. Great place and some really nice people here too. Way more content than any other places I have been too.

So yep I am crazy and want to try building a strawbale/ light clay slip/ cob structure like yesterday. So is there anybody out there?
I have my cards in construction carpentry 3rd yr which is a plus and also have a friend who owns land about an hour north of montreal who is very keen for me to build a small cabin or something. I plan on salvaging supplies and have a friend with a pick up. I got it all baby but I want to do it with as many SB cobbers as possible in taking Paul's world domination to a reality. 
It could be you want help on your project, if you are near montreal and are up for some building then lets start chatting.

I have a facebook account just search Enviroman and you will find me. I am planning many workshops for next year, using straw and clay plastering for infill on playhouses for kids. I have 20 plus people already interested and that was through just one person, the more the merrier. If you cant come but are interested you can soon watch my videos of the process on my u tube channel.

Hey not sure if your subscribed to the forum yet, see the bottom of the forum page.

There is a fellow in Lower Quebec who just posted looking for people to help him out, live/stay on his property. Maybe you should chat with him?
Cheers and good luck
