"Double boiled or polymerized linseed oil is also used in oil based paints and varnishes. One interesting aspect of this process is that it provides a pure oil that can be used to finish food contact surfaces.

Hello, I loved this video and will absolutely use your teachings. I have been searching all over the internet for instructions on how to build shelves, tables, and other furniture out of earth. Do you have any tips, tricks, or advice on this? If you could also recommend any books, websites, or other resources that provide detailed guidance on this type of construction, it would be incredibly helpful. I'm eager to learn more about this sustainable building method and would greatly appreciate any direction you can offer. Thank you so much for your time and expertise!💚
Hey hey, thanks so much for uploading that very informative clip. I am about to start building a cob sauna. The inside and actually outside will be sealed the way you have shown in your clip. Any thoughts on how that will go with the humidity and hot temperatures inside that sauna? Many thanks in advance and once again, thanks for that wonderful peace of art you were creating and sharing
This idea should work as you have described it, all parts being well designed. Be sure to also include closeable ventilation at the peak at very least, (perhaps also a closeable intake low) and possible fans or forced air of some kind to ensure that the excess humidity of the sauna does not linger beyond usage time. Other than that consideration, it should all be fine.
Very helpful. I wish there was a shorter version with the steps shown in direct order and less children. Maybe it comes in the future, in the meantime I keep skipping bits.
Very nice and informative video. I am currently researching materials to use in my bathroom project. I am planning to use this method with linseed oil and beeswax to seal the floor and shower area. Two questions. 1: Would you recommend this method or do you think I will get problems with the moisture? 2: Can I use all types of beeswax and just mix them with linseed oil? Cheers from Denmark
Hello. Sorry it took til now to reply. If you havent already done this project, I think you will have excellent success keeping moisture out with a 50 50 wax oil solution.
Yes, we built a wood frame, then mounted it with the cob mud. If doing so on a vertical surface, be sure to add small protruding nails or screws into the wood to gain bonding.
We have had success with this approach setting, even in dark areas. It seems to be the air allows the oxygen to set the process, even where no sunlight naturally occurs.
@@g.e.boroush5176 The cob here was put onto a recycled wood cabinet top. The wood was pieced and not very nice, so it was not worth finishing by itself.
Yes, oil can be used to waterproof exterior cob. However, the cob still needs to be protected from direct rain, as even oil erodes. It is very helpful to oil lower walls where they receive ground splash back, or on upper walls where roofs splash to reduce erosion there. It does take a lot of oil, though because cob is a very thirsty material. It also darkens the cob, and reduces the hygroscopic (water vapour balancing) capacity of that wall.
@@keeravan Other oils can work, but some do not harden. Castor oil is fairly sticky, I am not sure if it could be made to work. I have definitely used old vegetable oil on less important areas and it did a fairly good job.
If one takes pure or near pure clay and bakes it until it becomes deep red, like pottery, when crumbled, it keeps that deep red hue, and can be painted with.

Yeah this is so beautiful. Great video. Building my first Con cabin, this was very helpful
Amazing 😍 and what a beautiful environment for children to grow up in.
It must be smelling wonderful in that house...
Nice way of making earthen surface into waterproof earthen surface.
Great job using natural things in the age of cement granite and marble.
What a cute kid. Thank you for the information.
Beautiful work.
At 12:34 we see the beautiful woman who has done this amazing work with her hands! Great Job!!!
It's great to know you are living in Ontario 😊 Thank you for sharing these helpful info

Im new here but I hope your wife defineitly made some videos on her makeup and earth pigment adventures! great video
Wowww 🌱🐌🌳
Thank you for sharing this! Im looking for a way to waterproof a cob bathroom wall... Without tadalakt or Marmorino...
Perfect timing!

How did you guys make the kitchen counters and shelves ? Is there a lattice or frame inside the cob for strenght and rigidity ?
Yes, we built a wood frame, then mounted it with the cob mud. If doing so on a vertical surface, be sure to add small protruding nails or screws into the wood to gain bonding.
If for some reason someone is unable to experience the best of you, its a good indication that they should not experience you at all....
I think you need full sunlight to achieve polymerization of the oil and wax. if not just get an UV light¿
We have had success with this approach setting, even in dark areas. It seems to be the air allows the oxygen to set the process, even where no sunlight naturally occurs.
What was the substrate that you put the earth-cob on in the first place?
@@g.e.boroush5176 The cob here was put onto a recycled wood cabinet top. The wood was pieced and not very nice, so it was not worth finishing by itself.
@@g.e.boroush5176 The cob here was laid over recycled wood. The wood was pieced, so it was not good enough to finish as a wood top.
Could this be used outside to waterproof a cob wall?
Yes, oil can be used to waterproof exterior cob. However, the cob still needs to be protected from direct rain, as even oil erodes.

can we use castor oil or some other oils

@@ontariopermaculture3665 ok then i will use other vegetables oils which are very easily available for me
what is "baked earth" is this just clay deposits or soil?
If one takes pure or near pure clay and bakes it until it becomes deep red, like pottery, when crumbled, it keeps that deep red hue, and can be painted with.
Subsoil, under the humus layer.
So it's a slip made of flux?
