HI
I am curious about building an eathship on inheritance ground. if I dig inside the earth the back wall has to be somehow support. I know that tires are also used as retaining wall. but what if the ground is a heavy clay ground grab for about 2meters deep (about 6,5 feet) should I support the back wall stronger in someway? thanks

Be wary of tires, a lot of people say they can be dangerous for wall/house building.

I do Celtic, fantasy, folk and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts, and other events in OR and WA, USA.

thank you. I know. but mostly it is a problem if they are build wrong. people who are doing it has no expirience and are doing some stuff wrong. so I know there is some danger
