18/ I love the aesthetics of rammed earth, but it only makes sense in ultra-dry climates. ...to the degree that it makes sense at all. The problem w various "alternative" building techniques is that they are ULTRA high labor.https://twitter.com/MogTheUrbanite/status/1413868786814382082 …

29/ I've done all of this, and more. I've helped build conventional houses, and I've helped build an alternative (timberframe) house. Get some callouses. Get some splinters. THEN I will listen to your opinions on this stuff.

31/ TY! Stick building optimized for industrial scale. It's almost free to cut a tree into 2x4s and then the 2x4s are easy to move. Timberframe requires much less sawing, more hand work. Results are beautiful. I like TF, would use it in this scenariohttps://twitter.com/looking5452/status/1413879869000323076 …

32/ this sounds like a long and fascinating and ultra rewarding path! best of luck to you; you're going to love and (hate ! :) every day of it, and no other project will be as rewarding or make you as proud when you're done.https://twitter.com/looking5452/status/1413882611487870976 …
