Earthbag Building: The Tools, Tricks and Techniques: 8 (Mother Earth News Wiser Living Series, 8)

I built my own earthbag house using this guide alone. It is incredibly detailed and the illustrations are great for understanding how to put earthbags together, adding strip anchors and the art of 'diddling'. There are some areas where information is a bit scarce, or more illustrations would have been useful; windows and doorframes ( Both I, and another friend of mine who also built such a house, had various issues with the methods outlined in the book) and bond beams for round houses for example. But generally, a wise buy if you're about to embark on earthbag building.

This book is fantastic, it has clear instructions for building an earthbag structure from beginning to end in detail with plenty of diagrams, measurements and pictures.

The earth bag bible...wouldn't dream of attempting a build without it. Very detailed clear instructions will help you not to make disastrous mistakes. Tougher with Earthbag building.com, and Youtube...I'm now building my own.

This is a great 'how to' guide. I feel after reading this that I could build one. They even go into making your own tools step by step. Very good book thoroughly recommended if you are interested in alternative materials.

Good book, but not quite what I had expected - far more complicated and heavy to buid than I'd hoped.

I MUST ADMIT WHAT A GREAT ALL ROUND SERVICE , JUST WHAT I NEEDED AND LOTS OF INFO BUT THE PRICE IS A BIT HIGH,.POST/PACKAGING WAS FANTASTIC . WILL BE BACK IN THE FUTURE. A BIG THANK YOU

In combination with other research, this helps greatly with simplistic structural planning. No plumbing/electrics in this though; think of this book as the beginning or framework of your build. But of course, choosing to begin is the first step, books second, material preparation third and actualisation last. I'll update with images soon.

Easy to read and understand, written in a very relaxed and conversational manner. A veritable Bible for anyone interested in Earthbag Building.

era mesmo o que eu esperava

This is a great book, which gives you all the information you need to build your own dream!

Fast shipping, and arrived in perfect shape. But who cares about shipping when you’re dealing with a book like this? This book is a treasure trove of information about simple and effective methods to build beautiful and functional spaces. If you have any interest in this building style, BUY THIS BOOK.
