I find it awe inspiring how a little bit of mud has such a large impact! This video shows how the "cob hat", aka mud, was added to the Minnie Mouse in the Love Shack. It is capturing all the heat that was rising, and overheating the top of the cabin, so it radiates over hours to heat the cabin up pretty quickly and keep it warm for hours. They are so creative!
My garage is like a cabin when it comes to cold. I've insulated it but it's still cold in the winter. The Minnie Mouse with the Cob Hat would heat it up quickly and keep it comfortably warm enough for me to get work done without freezing.
