Hello Drew,

I would very much appreciate if you would connect me with your friend.  Being new to the permies site, I am not sure how to best go about doing that.


Thanks,
James

Hello!

My wife and I are new to the site and glad we found it!  We are planning to build a cob-strawbale house next summer in Oxford, WI.  Does anyone know of cob builders in Wisconsin?  Is anyone interested in learning or helping with cob?

We are glad to meet you all!

Thanks for your comments!

We are planning to have a cob interior wall, then compressed straw bales, and a stone and cob wall exterior wall.  We were planning to build the stone wall up a few feet with lime plater covering the outside exposed cob wall.  Also, we will have large eaves with trees to the north of the house to block the wind.

Do you think this will be sufficient or do you have more considerations?  All comments welcome!

Hello!

I am new to permies.com and want to reach out to you all if you know of any cob builders in Wisconsin.

My wife and I plan to build our cob home next summer in Oxford, WI and we are looking for any experience or help.  Please let me know if you or someone you know is in the area and could chat.

Thanks,
James
