Rocket Mass Heater Gets Fired Up - Mountain Dream Home

#30 -- As promised, we're continuing to follow the process as we build a rocket mass heater in our dream home! This week we did a lot of cob (the earthen bench material) and fired it up!
Please note: We are new to this technology. Although we do our research and will be as engaged and transparent and informative as we possibly can be, if you really want to know what's up with rocket mass heaters, go see some experts!
The Erica and Ernie Wisner book we talked about is here:

Disclosure: Because of how Paul Wheaton does things -- and he's an interesting fellow, I promise you! -- any purchase through these links on Scubbly gives Fouch-o--matic a rather significant cut of the proceeds.
