Great video idea! we are considering doing a guest house this year using all natural building techniques. this video series is going to help a ton of people!

[ajbjones]

I’m so glad I heard about you guys from Janine. You produce very entertaining videos. I’m very impressed with your hard work and great narration - quite educational 😊 and I like your choice of music as well so keep on keeping on 👍👌😬

Very much looking forward to it, great job

Hi James, great work, I like your color choices and sill detail! Nice to see your greenhouse manifest

Ive even studying and dabbling in natural building for 35 years and rammed earth is currently at the top of the list for a major nice addition. I love that when the forms are removed it’s done. No wrap, sheathing, insulating, screws, nails, painting, siding. So many steps can be skipped.

Now that's an intro! looks incredible !

[Zuzanafan]

James, you are so creative and talented! Great job!

Amazing video and fantastic project! Love from Perú

[LostInFunk]

Another great video. Your can-do attitude inspires me and gives me the confidence while planning my own project that I can do it. I'm working my way through the book you recommended, it's a great resource. With your next project, will you be laying a concrete slab or just sticking with footings? If a slab, could you discuss the logistal problems that need to be overcome, if any, when doing it as a self-builder? Also I'm interested in roofing options. You are building a structure designed to last, so how do you match that with a roof of a similar lengevity? Or is it not an issue and you just accept that at some point you will have to replace the roof?

What part of Canada are you in? I'm wondering if we're located close as I'll be doing rammed earth in BC. I like your walls as they don't have those holes that I always see in other walls.

[ratamahatta]

So - footing is made of "normal" concrete?

[carsonc]

Recommended thickness for walls? Best chemical free non toxic insulation?
