0742Sheff Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 I've just been reading this story about the man who built his own 'hobbit house'. I am amazed he managed to build that in just 4 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yog Sothoth Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 There are cob walls standing that were built when we were fighting Napoleon. Using natural materials in a way that will last is just a matter of protecting them from the environment. Modern building materials are as much about ease and convenience for the builders as anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
