I dreamt of Cob the other night

*Sigh* One day I'll get to sculpt my dream house. In my dream the other night I was mixing cob and building a structure. Here are some photos of why cob is so cool:

Dirty feet and dancing

I got to make cob yesterday. It looked something like this:


I used to love adobe best, but now I love cob the best.

To see what the whole process is check out the full cartoon here.

Cob is so cool. You can sculpt, and I really mean sculpt a house out of it. Check out this cob house:


It's so fun to make, although it is pretty labour intensive. I dream of making my own lovely cob house with built in benches like the above picture. Nice and round and beautiful. With a thatched roof. One day. *sigh* I plan on having an old timey or bluegrass band playing while everyone dances on the cob mixing it together. It'll be a hoot.
