A guy I know visited my shop recently, he falls trees now and then, among various other chores, mostly carpentry, he does working for a holistic retreat up in the woods. I was surprised to learn that he has built a dirt bag structure up there as well, seeming to be of similar methods. He expressed concern about how the structure he made would respond to an earthquake. I haven't been up there to see what he built. I might wait until after one of our quakes comes along.
