The Earth Sheltered Dwelling

RE: The Earth Sheltered Dwelling
There is probably sort of waterproof material between the wood and the soil, even with a slope like there would be a risk of a leak otherwise, and it would be a pity to get all the soil on and then find out you need a plastic sheet.. I have made what we call the `bunker` a lot smaller than that, but the same sort of design,... I used eight inch diameter logs, but my `bunker` is only eight feet long, so they are laid lengthways in an arch shape, rather than a conical,... well worth making a little hidy-hole somewhere if you have the space
A major part of survival is invisibility.
