Thank you for sharing. You're really eloquent and inspirational! Your house is looking fantastic.
@@ellenmoran8649 thank you so much!🙏🙏
Just discovered your channel and i am impressed with your work! Lovely house, very educative, and you are an interesting host with great presentation. Definitely one of the most underrated channels! Keep up the great work.
Your house is amazing and inspirational. I am wondering about the black olive oil and how much was required for your bath?
@@mikeloki2064 my entire shower required only a teaspoon of it, diluted into 1 liter of water!
So beautiful! Great progress!
Thank you!!
Lovely. How long does it take polishing one square meter of tadelack wall?
Some self builders with straw didn't dare to do it on a straw wall because they heard it cracks in time and if humidity goes in a straw outside wall your house is ruined. But in your climate you don't need thick straw walls. Cob is enough and you redo it easily.
@alonsoabaroa7435 a sq meter could take around 10-15 minutes! The only way I know how to do it on a straw wall is to do a thick cob plaster on the cob first, then lime plaster. On exterior walls, I've done both tadelakt and just gritty lime plaster. The only place where therr has been issues is where there has been continual rain splatter from a gutter. The plaster can't take consistent heavy wetting, but no issues above ground for the walls that get plenty of rain. A roof overhang/porch is highly recommended. For my totally exposed walls on my lime-plastered strawbale shed, use a gritty finish. This reduces runoff and slows rain down, preventing wearing. It is holding up well!
@@turiyapanama thank you very much. I am looking forward to see how your projects evolve and the tadellack surfaces behave. They are much more beautiful than the usual shower
@@turiyapanama 15 minutes a square meter is much better than I thought. Thanks.
And the soil floor... I would be interested in exploring other colours. The ones I have seen are very dark and homogenous. But I saw a similar Italian technique, I have forgotten the name, with a mixture of powder brick and cal. The colour was beautiful, and not homogenous, as old barro floor tiles are, with different shades in every part.
Thanks for sharing, I have been learning a lot from all these videos.
So happy to hear that! Thank you for watching 🙏
Hi Turiya. May I ask you what brand or wha the contents are of the black olive oil soap? I would like to give it a try, but I want to make sure I get something (maybe US equivalent) to mix with my lyme for waterproofing.
I use Savon Noir from limeworks.us! I have a discount code you can use. Code is KristinaB ....you do not mix the soap with the lime. The soapy mix goes on top, and it must be done at a specific time. I will have online workshops about it next year!
@@turiyapanama Thank you very much Turiya! I've faced a great deal of criticism in the US being the only one around considering cob to combat WV poverty. I've heard things as far as "It not safe for the kids," and even my own Mother and Father lack faith in me. It means a lot having your support. We're documenting our own journey for kids who may not be able to afford housing. If we decide to upload it, I would love to reference your channel you grow.
You only use NHL standard beneath the soap layer, correct? Not two different lime plaster products? There seems to be a handful of different ways to mix tadelakt, but I just want to get a few sample tiles going first so I'm trying to find the most economical way to test it
I use NHL standard 3.5 for the base layer and NHL 2 for the top tadelakt layers! I found that I get the most reproducible results with these because they have controlled ratios of impurities. I also found that regilar hardware store "builders lime" works decently for a base layer but you should always test that first!
@@turiyapanama Thank you so much. I've been watching your videos and so many others, my head is swimming with information lol. I'll give what you recommend a go, really looking forward to the possibilities
@SydEveratt so much information but it all clicks once you start doing it on your own! It rly is an experiential skill. I had to fail a LOT, but I learned so much!
Hey Turiya! How safe is to where you live? Like... are there cartels and gangs?
There aren't! Super safe. Never lock my car. Neighbors look out for each other. I feel much safer here than in the US, but I also live far from the big city!
Love your videos! How long do you wait after you apply the soap to rub the stone over it?
Thank you! It depends on your environment, but for me, about 30 minutes! If I'm working outside and it's hot/windy, it can be as little as 10 min! Needs to be not wet and not fully dry. I'll have online workshops on this next year!
@@turiyapanama I'm definately signing up! I am so inspired by you. Do I mix the black olive oil soap with water or just use it pure out of the bottle onto a sponge to apply? Can you provide a link to the type and brand that you use please? Thank you so much for your time and precious information !
@angelatyler1366 black olive oil comes as a thick paste! You mix one part paste with 20 parts water, this creates the soap! I use Savon Noir from limeworks.us. You can use my code KristinaB for a discount! 😊
@@turiyapanama Thank you so much!
Kristina, does the lime putty paint you made consist of only lime, pigment and water? No sand at all? I'm trying to experiment.
You use the jar instead of stone or before the stone?
@alonsoabaroa7435 i tried the jar but the wall is too curvy! I also think the glass itself is not hard enough for the compression you need. For the tadelakt I did after this, I only use a stone with the proper hardness. I like ocean jasper!
@@turiyapanama thank you
@@turiyapanama In some video I saw someone doing it with a bit of plastic from a plastic bottle. It does follow the curves of the wall. I can't remember the video
I guess in Europe self builders could dare to do that in a straw house building the shower not on an outside straw wall, but only with cob walls inside the house.
@alonsoabaroa7435 there are self builders in europe doing this on outside walls! I recently discovered Gernot Minke's books and he has a ton of pictures of successful strawbale builds throughout europe over the past century that are still standing today!
Tadelack walls can transpire?
Straw walls can, that is why there is never mold there. If your entire inside walls are tadelack you loose a very important quality of natural housing
@@alonsoabaroa7435 tadelakt does breathe! That is why I chose it
