Hello Miguel, i think it is amazing what you are doing. Huge inspiration. I am building one of your Palletable Cobins on a slope in Portugal. My questions are; Wouldn't it be best to build it on a raised platform ? and Wouldn't it be good to insulate the floor with some straw aswell?. and if; what would you do about rodens coming to to grab the straw/insulation and so on. Thank you!
Hello Miguel, I am trying to get organized to build a strawbale cob home, I also have friend that gives me pallets often.. If you would like to consider having a class at my property, that would be amazing! I live on 6 acers where the Butte fire came through. Really looking forward to hearing from you.. I have watched your videos for the last year many times.. Shari
Hi Shari, nice to hear from you glad you have been enjoying my videos. Yes pallets are super easy to get which is a big bonus pretty much anywhere I build. That's great that you are wanting to build naturally on your property. I am currently in Florida finishing up building a school year and have lots of jobs lined up so I'm not sure if I'll be able to need a workshop on your property but stoked that you asked!
We are planners. The mind must conceive the change. Then embrace the change. Then study how to apply the change. Then apply it We must prepare properly because there is no question where we are headed. It is simply a matter of time.
Is the pallet wood safe. Much of this stuff is treated with poisons for export/rodents/bugs? Just wanted to know given the structure breathes is this safe long term? In addition I would love to of seen full commitment on the cob. Theirs no reason not to use both cob and the pallet straw. Build the cob structure fully around the building. Making stone walls where theirs no bottom pallets and continue to use walls as frame. Or would this cause an issue with shrinkage etc because they two styles are nt tied in. I love the idea. Its basically slip insulation concept/straw bale. However I realise you have made a claim on this tech however everything has been done under the sun? Would be great to see a vid complete. In addition theirs more money in keeping people homeless and supply in high demand. After all why would people slave all their lives when they could build a house like this. You dont have to be homeless to support this kind of housing. What I wish we push for is a community free from bondage. Free to live in peace away from debt and obligation. The fact is no man has title to anything. Its a fiction. Why do we all agree this invisible thing called the government can claim domain thus we must consent to supporting this system which is owned by people higher up the top. Who said these people can use the government to make everyone slaves and why do we continue to support it. You only need a permit if your doing something illegal/SIN. Maybe its because we use their birthbond/last name which ties us to the beast system. The fact is living is only a crime when you consent to mammon. ie The debtors name or sir name. This is where all the problems start. Title is the root of all evil. Its man made and a con struct. How and why cant we see through the programming. As for safety well the elite have no issue paying for people to cause chaos so they can offer the remedy. Sorry but approval, planning permission? Who gave them the authority? Themselves? lolo. Well I want my authority to be free and not controlled by these satanic programmers forever plotting their ploys? Really annoyed with my Lot and the illusion of life. Its a mess. Theirs no pleasure in living anymore since people forget who they are and allowed these elites back into their lives only after they dressed up in costumes and pretended to be our friends? Cunning.
You'll want to get "HT" pallets, heat treated. It's usually marked pretty clearly. The good news about that is that I've found that those are the ones that hardware stores are usually giving away.
Hey Shalon, I agree with what you say. The solution is to be in this world but not of this beast system world. Turn your eyes upon YESHUA, he only is the truth. Soon this wicked evil world will pass and the new earth will be as you envision, paradise with no sin or bondage through trickery by satan, the Prince of this fallen world.
We are the revolutionaries, and we create the change we want to see in the world. I follow Jesus Yeshua as He is The Way The Life and The Truth. The only Savior of this world. The only True Living God given all authority from the Most High YHWH the Name no one can pronounce except to address our God as Father or Lord. I pray to our Father to bless every heartbroken soul in Jesus Christ Holy Name Amen He guides His followers and protects us from evil. He shows us a way out, and this concept of tiny home living is one outlet. The golden age is upon us, and every healer I know is busy preparing for the inevitable.
Cobstatic.... Love it
So simple, easy, cheap, safe and reliable that it's illegal.

Hi there Miguel, any idea what the pallets sit on? and what is the insulation? straight straw or a mix of some sort? Many thanks for your help! Kieron
Yes, the pallets are sitting on a sill plate and are insulated with straw, foam, cardboard, blankets, clothes, plastic, or whatever's clever ..
I was wondering if goat or sheep dung could be used instead of horse or cow dung for finishing coat of adobe?
I wwoofed at this ladies farm years ago.. she was incredibly w(b)itchy

Yes, I use heat treated pallets, and I encase the pallets in cob so there is no off gassing anyhow.
