Decagon cobin with loft
Thank you for this community and all your hard work building and making these concepts accessible, Miguel! I thought I’d introduce myself and share a little bit about my project with y’all. I began building a cobin last summer but have really limited time to work on it so I wrapped it in tar paper and tarped it during the last rainy season and now this one as well. I went a little rogue with the design which has introduced some issues. I’ve made a lot of mistakes along the way without this community but hopefully it will all work out in the end. I’m hoping to get some windows and a door and start framing them in during the rainy season so I’m ready to cob when the time comes but it’s not likely that I’ll find the time so this project may continue longer. What can I say? I’m one (very busy) human!

@Andrea Jane YES! I'm fortunate that it's now covered under my health insurance. Otherwise, it would be a bit of a struggle and definitely NOT weekly sessions.

Yes, I've always wished I could afford to live in the Bay again! LOL Especially with my children! Yes, GA is very green and that's a plus! I'm originally from NY and GA will do for the next 2.5 years until I'm able to transition out of the US. Yes, I've been a fan of Miguel for a while, and it's great that he's made himself accessible to all of us. Good luck with raising funds!

Working on the foundation for the 12 sided cobbin. Cleared the topsoil, added a couple yards of road base, placed the moisture barrier on top of that and now a couple more yards of road base. Helps to have a tractor and a dump trailer :-)

Nice! I’m hoping to get my son to help me too! What size is your cobin?

Apologies, I meant square footage. If you’ve calculated it. Thanks

Thanks for sharing! It's so inspiring!! I had two trees cut down yesterday to make way for my cobin. Now, I can go out and get started! My first step today will be to mark the space, of course.
Let’s try it another time not during the work day…
I waited for a while and no one hopped on the call so everyone must be busy. Let’s reschedule for another time. Maybe next Sunday at noon we can go live….
