Well done guys
Hopefully u get a bunch more passionate ppl to join u and keep your business going for many years to come
You are my People.
I love the idea of marrying timber frame with a cob structure. The benefit of doing this is that the exterior timber frame is protected from termites because of the cob and even a termite barrier that can buried directly into the cob, and we don't need as much wood for a cob/timber frame home because the majority of material is cob. I think the two materials marry beautifully to one another. So much, in fact, that it is my goal to construct a two story cob home in Nevada that will be a cob/timber frame home. :)Thank you for this wonderful episode.
Mark Gailmor . Exactly. Thats what i am doing right now. It works really well.
termites eat through cob
Mark, It would be AWESOME if you make a video or two about your house if you do build one!
@@NaturallyEmpowered I was speaking with a friend who told me that he imbeds cob with termite sheets. These are, I guess, mesh sheeting that termites cannot eat through, When the reach it, they around and leave
@@TryingNotCrying I'm actually considering CEB, or compressed earth block now. I think they can work well with timber frame and because of the compression, they are termite proof.
Simply amazing. Glad to see this coming out from land called Canada.
This video doesn't have enough "like" buttons. Very inspirational. Pre-building a house in one's garage is a genius idea.
Проектирую подобные дома с 2010. Всегда приятно посмотреть на опыт мастеров из-за океана. Спасибо за хороший фильм.
i'm determined to get these ideas to Brazil,im upset with the way we build and waste materials and how simple it is to fix all of that, i'm willing to have classes on timber framing and keep this way of living going till the end of my days! we can't lose this simplicity! we just can't! I'm determined ... thanks for the videos!
you guys make such amazing videos!
Awesome such nurturing knowledge
unfortunately in australia the country is over regulated and to build a traditional build home would never meet the requirements of local councils, they would say it needs plasterboard, treated pine or steel frame walls and a poxy steel roof,
Keep up the good work 🙏❤️
You make really good videos
To live in Cob homes iis better for our health and they last at least 400 years. Some of them in Erope have lasted a thousand years.
It's the way forward, we've just got to make sure that replanting of trees ( as much variety as possible) is the biggest priority.
13:26 !!! Love it ;o))
I would like to do this within the next few months
I would need help in building it.
are there any practical channels for building with cob that dont ramble for like 5 minuets???
please, subtitle in Spanish
wood and earth
13:26 beautiful
That's very nice, but I lean towards load-bearing strawbale house. I just don't want to waste so many trees.
timber grows on trees. Once trees have a dollar value based on quality vs commodity pulp/cellulose and growth rate, we can expect forests to be managed according, as historically was the case. Build it once and build it right. Hay bale is interesting too but there's nothing wrong with good timber frame construction, either way your haybale house needs a roof and a floor
Plant more trees to produce more natural buildings...
Good information but supper rich can apply only !!!
That guy from Son Ranch has beautiful eyes I would so marry him
Lumber treated with DIY IONIC SILVER WATER and/or DIY Sodium Silicate ... should change the world of many a hued man.
i dont think there is enough good quality timber for every house; this means it becomes expensive; which means most people wont be able to afford it; also keep in mind that expensive things have high carbon footprint behind them
Some of these buildings last 100s of years and are 100% repairable with locally sourced materials. Additionally, timber farming can be done with 0 electricity and no nails. It is carbon sequestration as a matter of fact and there is nothing that is as sustainable.
But hey, I feelz your guiltz. Not really though, you sound rediculous.
While these houses look pretty, the number of trees cut down for a single house means that the forests will soon be gone!
Not true. They regrow. Furthermore, it uses less luimber overall.
Trees are very easy to replenish by planting more trees whenever trees are cut. It is the interest of timber suppliers to plant more trees otherwise they go out of business.
