Roundhouse Rumble: Final Push to Finish our Hyperadobe Roundhouse Earthbag Walls
In our first series of roundhouse videos we designed, planned, and set the foundation for this unique eartbag home. The second series of videos focused on building the earthbag walls, installing doors and windows, and more. The third series saw us continuing to build the walls to the tops of our doors and windows. Then we rant out of steam.
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.
