Marcus Grace : Someone has to do this, it might as well be you. You will still have to do a layup out doors first, so you will need some clay to make clay slip to temporarily
seal off the leaks that setting your rocket burner up dry will automatically cause to happen, You can make up the Feed Tube, Burn Tunnel and Heat Riser with fire bricks and
because your build will be permanent for good or ill you must, plan the insulation for the combustion zone, and the right amount of off-sets to protect your exposures !
A single bag of 'Fire clay' and Perlite and a yard of Builders Sand
should get you through the parts that you
can't don't want to substitute Concrete for Cob!
Concrete is more dense than cob, heat energy will flow through it slightly faster and you can use up lots of natural stone in making up sections of your Thermal Mass Bench,
