Use What You Have II

20130831 063We have started building the base for our wood-fire pizza oven.  We have clay, gravel and sand on various parts of the property, so can make our own pise or poured earth walls and cob oven.   We were going to build the house with rammed earth and bought the formblock in-situ block making formwork system.  We decided against going down the owner builder route, but have already used the system to cast over 200 blocks for walls in our landscape design and our raised vege beds.
