      Fast Cob! The Fastest Build on Earth!

After 19 years of providing effective, proven Natural Building skills to all of 
our participants, it's time to up the ante.

We've been tinkering with the deeper aspects of how to learn all the skills you 
need to get building NOW, and we're very proud to announce our newest offering: 
The Complete Fast Cob Builder's Programme!

For the past 5 years, we've known that learning how to _finish_ Fast Cob 
buildings _first_, makes it even easier to learn how to build them 
_faster_...everyone who has taken this path has readily agreed.

But there have been a couple of aspects of building that we haven't taught 
because it just wasn't easy (and therefore not safe) to do so.  That just changed.

Our new Advanced Fast Cob workshop adds those pieces in to give you the COMPLETE 
package to start building THIS YEAR!

Not only will we show you how to put a roof on a Fast Cob building, we'll show 
you how to build a stacked rock foundation, which will empower you to go home 
and literally start building.

The best part of this new programme is that we also make all of this learning 
_affordable_, by offering deep discounts to those that really want to get 
building this year.  This is due to our desire to help make more /effective 
/Natural Builders in this crazy, insane world.

BTW, if you don't know all the benefits of building and living with Fast Cob, 
literally the Fastest Way to Build on Earth, please check our website:

Okay, let's get to the details...here are the dates of our 2025 Fast Cob 
Workshops; _all 3 are included in the Complete Fast Cob Builder's Programme_:

  * *Focus on Finishing: **Thursday May 15 to Monday May 19 (over the Canadian
    Victoria Day Long Weekend)**
    *
  * ** *All the Basics of Building: **Thursday June 19 to Monday June 23*
  * *Advanced Fast Cob:**Thursday August 7 to Monday August 11
    *

Thursdays and Mondays are travel days with a Welcome Dinner and Farewell 
Breakfast included.

Please be aware that we only have room for 2 people in this year's Complete 
Builder's Programme.

Now the cost: $2877, which includes all 3 workshops, all (hot, organic) meals 
and camping facilities, as well as all of the building and training materials 
that you'll need for each workshop.

Our vision is that you'll have a complete plan for your first structure before 
your last workshop (we teach you how to design in all of our workshops).  When 
you learn and practice stacked rock foundations in early August, you'll be able 
to go home and complete your new building's foundation before the end of the month.

Meanwhile, you will have sourced all of the cobbing materials during July so you 
are ready to build as soon as the foundation is finished.  By the end of 
September, your new roof is on and you'll have the lingering warmth of October 
to plaster and finish the walls while you install the wiring and plumbing.

This is a very realistic plan for anyone with a basic amount of fitness and 
desire to build a complete 200-400 sq.ft. building...all before the end of 
2025...that's this year!

If our Complete Builder's Programme is for you, the next step is to visit our 
workshop page <https://cob.lasqueti.ca/workshops.html> and complete the online 
application form.  You'll hear back within 24 hours and we'll get you on a path 
to building that simply isn't possible with any other technique.  Period.

Fast Cob.  The Fastest Build on Earth!
