After seeing the look of your walls, I think we will not plaster our adobe walls either. You've done such a fine job with laying the adobe bricks, there's no need to plaster and make the surface more even. Great job!

I love it Brother. I "was" wondering how you cover up the post and beams.

Really really interesting. Great job and thanks for sharing your experience. I have two questions if I may ask: 1) what is the climate in your country? Hot and humid? Dry? 2) aren't you afraid of all that wood rotting because it is in touch with that earth bricks which are rather higriscopic? I ask you these questions because I'd like to replicate in Italy with self made bricks and my climate is cold (-5C) in winter and hot and humid in summer. Thanks in advance for your kind reply.

Real Adobe walls not covered over really looks cool man. I would leave Adobe bricks natural with no cob.

Love your work it all looks so good. Is the mud to bed the brick the same mix as the brick just wet ? Have a blessed day you and yours

Fascinating watching this. Just curious, what climate are you in? The vistas and things you say make me think you are not in the desert southwest.

How do you protect the wood from termites in Adobe? Termites thrive on clay!

Are you a “home builder” per se? As in: do you and your team contract to build houses from the ground up? Are you geographically constrained? (Would you work in Arizona?)

So, is an AC system still needed? I've been reading, apparently Adobe keeps home cool....

Why didn't you use a vapor barrier on the beams before the wire

The question isn’t “how” you’d co er the beams. Rathe it’s “WHY” would you cover the beams?
