Doug, Jim and Mark are making quick work of cobbing the cabin.  Preparing the cob is the most labor intensive as it needs to be screened at least twice to get out the rocks that may clog the sprayer. This involves transferring the cob multiple times before it is ready to be applied.  When it's ready though, watch out because that mud really sprays.

 

I'm not sure if Doug was aiming at me or just waiting for Jim to turn on the juice.

 The majority of cob goes on the building, but there is a fair amount that the ends up on the party applying it.

The north wall is in various stages of drying.
