The Roundhouse Rumble is a monthlong earthbag extravaganza that will see Tiny Shiny Home making one last push to finish the earthbags on their hyperadobe roundhouse. Aided by an articulating boom lift, and lots of new friends, they are giving themselves 30 days to lay the final bag, and are documenting the steps with daily videos.
