Hey y’all here’s a little update …got the uprights in today and membrane. Will be putting base rock in tomorrow and the bottom 2x6 base plate joining the uprights. Then we’ll start prepping the pallets… hope you find these updates helpful as well as entertaining!!

Heya, I started the new hut today. Tomorrow I’ll be laying down a membrane and cutting a hole in the membrane where the upright will go and then putting the upright in concrete then we’ll put in some drain rock and lay down some tea by fours to attach our wooden floor then will start putting in our pallets and will work on the roof and get that all done before we do any of the Cob work. I’ll be documenting the process that you all can see how it progresses.

Hey y’all just thought I’d share with you the oven, hut and sauna at my place here in Petaluma Hope you’re having a great weekend!

Hey y’all, i’m down in LA now visiting the Oven. We built here a few months ago seeing how it’s doing after being rained on. It never received a code concealer so some of the plaster came loose so I just mixed up some plaster with sanding clay and put that on there to screw it out and when it dries will go ahead and put the oil sealer on it’s ideal to have a roof over it though hopefully it’ll happen as well

Got the roof beams up just in time before the sun set. They went up pretty quick and was pretty easy to do by myself as the joist hangers were already attached to the hub, I could just slide the beams in place and then climb up on the ladder and screw them in.
