“This is Chris who’s building the 24′ reciprocally framed scoria bag dome in Crestone. It has a 12′ gothic arch out the front southside; a vaulted airlock entrance; a 100 square foot cool pantry; and loft. I have a few months into this, 90% solo.

“After years of being a mechanical engineer, Sandot quit his job and moved back to this family farm in Northern Thailand. Now, he works to reforest the area and create a sustainable lifestyle and culture for both his neighbors and his family by growing his own food, building bamboo houses, and living the simple life.”
Earthbag Tools
Here is a compilation of previous blog posts and videos on earthbag building tools for those who can’t afford my Earthbag Building Guide. All this is covered in my book, but $20 – the cost of the ebook – is a lot of money in some parts of the world. Plus, it takes a good bit of time to search through our websites with thousands of pages of information and find just what you need. You will see in the following documents that very few tools are needed for building with earthbags. Whenever possible, buy (or make) the best tools possible so they last a long time.
Romania Earthbag Dome JOY Project
Dear Kelly, dear Owen,
We are looking for someone with experience in building earthbag domes to instruct us in May. In autumn we stopped at almost ground level. Do you know someone in Europe? We pay expenses and salary at least for 2 weeks, maybe 4 weeks, depending on salary. Should be an English speaker. Building site is in Salicea, a small village, 12 km from Cluj (there is an airport).
