[Humanpowered] Last two days to jump onboard the Fast Cob! train(ing)

[Dave Olsen]

Time is running out for our workshop and building specials.

Our 2018 Fast Cob! Live Workshops <https://cob.lasqueti.ca/live-workshops.html> 
are still at 2017 prices and if you apply before midnight on Sunday, you'll get 
a FREE copy of our soon-to-be-published online workshop, too, essentially giving 
you two workshops for the price of one!

And one soon-to-be Fast Cobber helped me realize that our workshop schedule is 
extra helpful in training you to be the best Fast Cobber you can be.  Our 
Focussing on Finishing Workshop over the May Long Weekend will prepare you for 
our All the Basics Workshops in June, July and August.

I've discovered over the years that my cobbing speed has increased dramatically 
after I started plastering and finishing on a larger scale.  What I learned is 
that the walls I built didn't need to be perfect: to the point where I now call 
Fast Cob the Art of Imperfection.

Of course, structural integrity is never compromised, but the surface 
imperfections, which are common when you build with a material like mud, can be 
ignored and either trimmed or filled with one of our plasters MUCH faster than 
trying to get wet material to stay in place during building.

All of which to say, by starting with our Finishing Live Workshop, you'll see 
how quickly and easily you can turn rough walls into beautiful works of art.  
Most past participants come to our All the Basics Workshops with a societal 
predilection to be perfect, usually learned during childhood.  Without 
experiencing how easy it is to fix the imperfections later, much of their 
workshop is spent beautifying walls that will be plastered over later.

This year, if you act quickly, you can save $500 when you sign up for both the 
Focus on Finishing and the All the Basics workshops 
<https://cob.lasqueti.ca/live-workshops.html> before midnight on Sunday.

And this year, you get the bonus of my 13 year old daughter as a 2nd expert 
instructor!  Which reminds me, children are always welcomed at our workshops!

If you have your own space to build and don't want to make the trip to Lasqueti, 
*I still have space for one more project* where I come to your place and both 
build what you want and teach you at the same time 
<https://cob.lasqueti.ca/have-us-build-your-dream.html>.

All of _our Specials end this Sunday at midnight PDT_, so visit our website 
<https://cob.lasqueti.ca> and fill in our forms to transform your dreams into 
reality and make 2018 the Year of Fast Cob! for you and yours, too!
