Step-By-Step Earthbag Building : Introduction

Today we're going to show you how to build an earthbag wall step-by-step. The main thing is to use good technique so that the wall is strong, level, plumb, and square. If you just pile the bags at random, it won't be nearly as strong as what we're going to show you today. One of the main things we're trying to show here is good building technique so that the wall is very strong. You can think of this like large bricks that overlap each other, that overlap at the corners. If built correctly, this is extremely strong and can withstand an earthquake or hurricane. If built correctly, it can be very strong like the roundhouse we're building now. by Owen Geiger Step-By-Step Earthbag Building Playlist www.youtube.com For complete information on earthbag building: www.EarthbagBuilding.com Earthbag Building Blog http Earthbag House Plans earthbagplans.wordpress.com

    Great Start on this video BUT you’re loosing MONEY because you’re dealing with Nazis’ by that I mean Paypal which is owned by Ebay.. I just tried to purchase your Earthbag Building Guide BUT Paypal, which feeds all it’s information to the DoD and related 3 letter agencies by the way, refuses to let me use my credit card. These people so as they please. No bank regulations to abide by. Just NWO policies to adhere to.. Go Green -

    You can make dome and arch structures out of them.

    So what about the roof system. Looks to me like the first tornado that comes through will rip this building apart. Same for a hurricane. Also, I noticed the inside walls aren’t covered. Wouldn’t his add to the structures strength?
