Chris - I'd love to check out the cob building process (without paying crazy "tuition" for a Gulf Islands work retreat!). If you're doing this on a weekend and wouldn't mind some kibitzing and a little help some weekend, let me know. 604-251-0996

I don't have any straw but I might be able to hook you up with some clay. Would be happy to come give you a hand with your project if the timing works. We did a natural building course last month.

Thanks guys for the information. I'm going to follow up on the straw/clay leads. I'll also be contacting all those that mentioned they were interested in helping. Should be within the next week. Am around broadway and main.
